Despite Liverpool’s struggles in the 2022/23 season, Mohamed Salah still produced a record-breaking campaign that outlined his greatness. Salah was one of the first names on the team sheet and ended the season with 30 goals and 16 assists, a career high at Anfield. His standout moment of the season was his stunning winner at home to Man City, a moment that few players in the world are capable of producing. Salah was seventh in the Premier League when it came to big chances created (15) and only Kevin De Bruyne (16) got more assists than his 12.
Salah is now in the conversation for being one of Liverpool’s top-three players of all time, behind only Sir Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard. His tally of 186 goals in 305 appearances is an outrageous return for a striker, let alone a wide forward, and he now sits joint-fifth with Gerrard in the all-time scoring charts.
Salah is a physical machine with an elite mindset and his lack of injuries means there is no reason why he can’t play at the top well into his 30s. He is Liverpool’s undisputed key man and if the team clicks again next season, he is capable of reaching new heights.
