Mo Salah appreciation thread

[LEONARD]

Still convinced he's a fraud. Can't kick a ball properly but is physically elite because of the PEDs and the yoga. Goal hanger as well.

Not having it

This is why I bother coming on here.

Sheer venom.

Love it!

Hazard was twice the player in his prime than this stat merchant, far far better footballer.

Bye

no chance. Hazard was only really elite for a few seasons. Salah has been consistently one of the best attackers in the world for 8 odd years now.

Sad, but true. On a slightly different note, I was told by a colleague last week that he probably strongly dislikes the 'Mo' aspect of his name.

Apparently, in many parts of Islam, shortening of Mohammed is seen as sacrilege.

Well if your looking at longevity then ye salah has been more consistent.

However prime hazard is a far better player than prime salah, I don't think that can be denied?

Hazard was the best player in the prem for about 3 of the seasons he was here, I don't think salah has ever been the best player in the prem, he's just a very good scorer ( I do think salah is unbelievable btw, just not as good as hazard who was magic)

Myth, he carried Lille to a Ligue 1 table when he was a teenager

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Well well well. Looks like we have a debate on our hands

There is no debate. Salah is a poor man's Jack Harrison. There, I said it

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Mad if you can't acknowledge he's a terrific player.

 

[Cassady85]

He's a world class player and will rightly be remembered as a hero for that lot but he wouldn't make my all time PL best 11.

That depends on all sorts though like formations and two similar kind of players in the same team. An example is trying to get Bergkamp and Cantona in the same first eleven.

 

[Huyton Layne]

I'm just glad he's signed for them and won a fraction of the trophies he'd have won at a top club. His individual accolades will be immense, team not so much.

 

[davek]

Is he even the best African player ever?

Eto'o surely?

I can't believe the accolades he's getting here. Just a slotter...and about a quarter of them are from the spot.

What next, Harry Kane - GOAT?

29 of 196?

 

[davek]

29 of 196?

Ok, one-sixth.

But he isn't even the most prolific scorer for Liverpool. Torres has a better rate of scoring per game...and no one is going to call him a world's greatest player.
