Still goalscorer and passer this Sunday during the Liverpool victory at Manchester City, Mohamed Salah is at the top of his art. The Egyptian is about to achieve the biggest season in the history of the Premier League, and you have to go to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to find points of comparison.
One can be absolutely master of his subject by having only 34% possession of the ball and by pulling half as much as his opponent. This was the case for Liverpool on Sunday, in Manchester City, where the Reds won 2-0 success which already brings them closer to the title of champion.
The Arne Slot collective was evil efficiency, with the impressive Mohamed Salah, first of all, first of all, following a combination of a corner, then a decisive passer for Szoboszlai after having mystified Gvardiol. Here is the Egyptian with 25 goals and 16 assists this season. He is the most decisive player of the Premier League, and by far, since he clearly ahead of Alexander Isak (19 goals and 5 assists) and Erling Haaland (19 goals and 3 assists).
Salah, it’s worthy of Messi and Ronaldo
We are only in February, and Mohamed Salah is getting closer to the goals’ record + assists in the Premier League. He is held by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole, involved in 47 goals in a season, when the championship had 42 days. Salah is therefore 41 direct contributions to a goal, and it will end around 58 if it maintains this rhythm. “He will finish with the best individual season in the history of the Premier League, I have no doubt about it”Make Jamie Carragher.
England had never seen that. And in recent years, only the two liga monsters have been able to succeed in such statistical seasons. “He has a season worthy of Messi and Ronaldo”adds Carragher. A golden ball season, then?
