The Egyptian King is enjoying a transition phase, from an elite Premier League player to an all-time legendary one. Mohamed Salah’s consistency remains remarkable with 31, 31, 30 goals in his last three seasons respectively across all competitions. He is rarely injured, rarely suspended and usually always available, proven by his 51 appearances in each of the last three campaigns. For a player with a relatively simple playing style, he remains an enigma to halt. We say ‘simple’ in the least derogatory way possible. Salah is a touchline-hugging, direct winger with the ability to drive inside as he approaches the box. It should be easy to see it coming, but nobody has found a way to stop him.
