    Salah's was more important though, maybe that's the criteria
    Meh.

    I've scored a few overheads playing 5 a side.

    A clever chip to wrong foot an opponent, much more difficult to not **** up.
    Oh I don't know.

      An overhead is more of a speculative effort, there's no way you know where you're placing it.

        Interviewed ahead of the match at the weekend apparently

        In an exclusive interview ahead of Liverpool's clash at West Brom on Saturday, live on Sky Sports Premier League, Salah said: "As you can see last couple of games, the players are trying to help me a lot now to score goals, because they know now I am in for the Golden Boot. In the end it is an individual award, but it also helps the team gets the points.

        "The way we play is very good, and you can see the fans are very happy and I feel very good about that, I feel they want me to win something.

        "It's the last four games, so it's very clear, I play for it. In the beginning I played for it, but it's always for the team. I want to score for the team.

        "But before, when I was second to Kane, I had a chance to score, I gave it to Bobby [Roberto Firmino] and he scored, I play football for football not just to think about myself. I give assists, I create chances, because I can't forget my position. I play still on the wing, not No 9. I play for the team and everyone can see that.

        "Honestly as you can see, I have had a great season and still some games to go. For anyone the most important thing is to play good, to perform good, to score goals for your team. I am happy in the city, for the club and for myself for sure. It means a lot."

        For Salah, the record is in sight. The 42-game record of 34 goals, held by Andrew Cole (93/94) and Alan Shearer (94/95) could also be ticked off the list, and the Liverpool star is full of confidence.

        "Now it's very clear, I want to break the Premier League [record]. 31 goals in a 38-game season. One goal to go, right?I want to break both records! It's just four goals and four games!"

            Really?? Overhead kick is a far harder technique, anyone who has played knows that....

            Having said that Mo’s goal was much more critical at that time so deserved equal recognition at least

              It's not even a debate, Ronaldo's goal was way better.

              I think the point is that Mo could win one of these fan competitions with a one-yarder off his nutsack as he's so ridiculously popular

              The best part is that Ronaldo will likely still be pissed about this meaningless poll as his ego is off the charts.

                Some of us just have the natural talent.

                  Doesn't that depend on whose head you're kicking over?

                      So apparently he's already won the PFA POTS. One more goal in three league games. Someone win a penalty for us please.

                        So, anyone care to change their opinions?

                        Suarez was capable of during the unexpected every game, Mo on the other hand does exactly what we expect, scores every time.

                        You knew that was a goal as soon as he got the ball yesterday, despite it not being an easy opportunity.
                        If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

                          salah is a great finisher, but he isnt the level of freaky genius that suarez was.
                          mo shows such amazing close control at times its almost like witchcraft, but suarez also had a level of power and bitey aggression that could almost win games single handedly, reminiscent of the way gerrard carried the team at times.

                          too many gutless players, no beef or desire. pussies everywhere... sack them all.

                            A hugely underrated facet in football. Could have used some of that to attack those neanderthals yesterday.

                            One thing Mo has though is pure short-distance acceleration well beyond what Suarez was capable of, and it's a huge factor in the number of touches he manages to garner in and around the opposition box.
                            There are very few 50/50 balls for him.

                              I think Suarez is still the better player, but I wouldn't currently swap Salah for any player in the world. He's a perfect fit, would be madness to give that up.

                                It's a bit like the Messi/Ronaldo argument. Suarez, like Messi is the more naturally gifted player, but like Ronaldo, Salah has worked so hard at improving his game to reach that level and perhaps surpass it.

                                If he leads us to CL glory, considering what he's also achieved for Egypt, the scales will probably tip in his favour.
