Mohamed Salah gave a us a sneak peek into his character shortly after he collected the Football Writers Association Award at a ceremony in London late on Friday night.
Salah, who moved to Liverpool from Roma during the summer of 2017, spoke of his determination to return to the Premier League and become successful in what is considered one of the most challenging club football leagues in the world. The Egyptian forward was once a Chelsea player - for two years between 2014 and 2016 during which time he scored two goals in 13 appearances.
He was loaned out to Fiorentina and then Roma before making a permanent move to Liverpool.
"To be honest, it was always in my mind when I left Chelsea," Salah said about his Premier League return. "I said many times it was always in my mind to come back, because a lot of people say he cannot succeed here and he's not good enough for the Premier League.
"So it was always in my mind to come back, and I had two great seasons in Rome, but I said to myself everyone was telling me no don't come back but it was always in my mind to come back to prove them wrong, so, yeah.
During the course of the current season, which ends this weekend, Salah has certainly proved he is good enough to play lop-level football in England.

How to become a Boglehead
Bogleheads follow simple investing philosophies to build their wealth and live better lives. Just follow these steps.
• Spend less than you earn and save the rest. You can do this by earning more, or being frugal. Better still, do both.
• Invest early, invest often. It takes time to grow your wealth on the stock market. The sooner you begin, the better.
• Choose the right level of risk. Don't gamble by investing in get-rich-quick schemes or high-risk plays. Don't play it too safe, either, by leaving long-term savings in cash.
• Diversify. Do not keep all your eggs in one basket. Spread your money between different companies, sectors, markets and asset classes such as bonds and property.
• Keep charges low. The biggest drag on investment performance is all the charges you pay to advisers and active fund managers.
• Keep it simple. Complexity is your enemy. You can build a balanced, diversified portfolio with just a handful of ETFs.
• Forget timing the market. Nobody knows where share prices will go next, so don't try to second-guess them.
• Stick with it. Do not sell up in a market crash. Use the opportunity to invest more at the lower price.
