It's just a shame salah has to play with the likes of Hendo, Can, milner etc. We are a few signings short of being world beaters, yet.
Technically you cannot compare Salah to Coutinho as Coutinho is world class, a better and more intelligent player . He is more limited that Coutinho and I don't think You could put Salah in the world class bracket yet,
Care to elaborate?. ............
Salah has shown in only 14 league games that he is a world beater. If I was to compare them..
Coutinho has no pace, is not physically very strong, and doesn't play well in every match. Although he can score from 30 yards, has awareness to put in clever through balls and passes etc.
Salah has that electric pace, scoring ability., does not lose posession much, quick turning, intricate passing ability., and the ability to turn defence into attack rapidly.
I'm betting he can keep this up for much of the season. hes threatend to score buckets in every match, just his finishing has been a bit iffy.
He's made a bigger impact than Torres, Suarez etc did when they set foot in the door..
Amen
