Leaving a fully-fit match-winning player on the bench for a competitive game would usually raise eyebrows, but in this instance, the majority of Liverpool fans think that their star man should be dropped.

On Saturday, Jurgen Klopp's men will face West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns, and have a great opportunity to further enhance their chances of securing a top-four place in the Premier League.

However, it is safe to say that in the back of the players' minds, they will be thinking about the colossal task ahead of them.

On Tuesday night, the Merseyside outfit will take on Roma at Anfield in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final.

Mohamed Salah is expected to be first name on the teamsheet due to his scintillating form, which has resulted in 40 goals in all competitions.

Normally, resting the Egyptian against a bottom-of-the-table team with a huge game on the horizon would not require much deliberation, but on this occasion, it could hamper the race for the Golden Boot.

As it stands, Salah is leading the charge with 30 Premier League goals to his name, while Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane sits four adrift in the tally.

Both have four games left before the domestic season comes to an end, and due to the fact that the race between the two is close, we asked Liverpool fans whether Salah should be rested in order to be fresh against Roma.

Despite the risk of losing out on the Golden Boot, the majority think that the 25-year-old should sit this one out.
