Mo Salah

[Chris]

And yet Ljungberg only scored about 1 in 5.

Salah is absolutely dreadful infront of goal, if we just ignore the **** load of goals he scores anyway. He'll have Freddie's best ever league tally beaten by about February!

[Kenneth]

He's got the best shin technique I've seen in ages.

[Norbs]

I haven't watched Kane so I don't known how many sitters he's missed.

But it's a legitimate criticism of Salah that he misses easy chances. It is 100% fair.

Difficult to quantify a sitter though. If he's bust a long to get in to a position then what looks like a sitter might not be. He could be off balance etc. He's picking up rhe quick through balls that most wouldn't have reached and making runs that most players wouldn't attempt. Safe to say he might need to learn more how to play in this team and his team mates need to observe the runs he's making.

In short, he's working his socks off to carve out half chances

and long may he bust a long

Nostalgia makes me seem to think he was a better finisher than that! Salah is amazing and we got him for £15m less than Gylfi - his goals tally is nuts so far and it will surely get better!

[Buzzo]

Actually finishing wise he reminds me of Michael Owen. Owen scuffed and shinned loads in to the back of the net. Immaterial as long as they are going in.

[danperkins]

although Ljungberg was a better finisher

Just that movement and those diagonal runs that everyone use to rave about from Freddie that so similar IMO.

His runs and the positions he gets in have been over looked someone because he hasn't been considered clinical but look at his stats their brilliant! I can only see this guy getting better and better.

Was having conversation with mate about Salah and I said I thought he has been an amazing signing, he said he's be good but not amazing as he misses so many chances. I was saying I would rather concentrate on was he has racked up on the board than what he has not. I think he will improve even more as the season goes on.... **** knows what his stats will look like come the end of the season but I can't see how anyone would not think he's been anything but absolutely brilliant


P.S. His first touch is insane

He absolutely killed one the other night against Maribor.

[danperkins]

What a ****ing player

[Gingawaria]

Imagine how many he would score if he could finish?!

[fidget]

Maurice Salad is ace

[dom9]

Well, I for one am delighted that he took sitter with such aplomb this evening. Second goal was a scorcher too.

[Shaggy]

12 in 16 starts, 2nd top scorer in the country in all comps, 2nd top PL scorer.

If he continues at this rate he's on course for about 35 goals and 15 assists. Lol.

[Tatterdemalion]

Absolutely brilliant start he's had.
