Mohamed Salah just refuses to stop flexing his superhuman skills on the continue. In doing so, he further cements his place as one of the very best players in the entire Premier League. Salah has a remarkable 28 goals and 18 assists this year. His extraordinary contributions to the club have delivered important titles to Liverpool and established new heights in personal accomplishment. Throughout the season, he displayed natural finishing ability and was a catalyst for his team’s attack as a result of his offensive dominance.
Salah, 32, has been one of the most influential players in Premier League history since moving to Liverpool from Roma eight years back. During this contract season, he’s done it yet again, continuing to be invaluable — especially on the offensive end, where his numbers have been stunning. In fact, all 28 of Salah’s Premier League goals have come from inside the penalty box. That just underscores how talented he is as a clinical finisher… especially in the big moments on the pitch.
By the end of the 2020 season, Salah had an astonishing 30 total goals and assists. He scored 21 more points than anyone else, as no other player had reached the 20-point threshold yet. His ability to impact games was evident early on, as he scored in each of his first three games of the season.
Salah added to his scoring credentials with an impressive run towards the end of the year. He netted two goals in an away match against Newcastle and added another against Tottenham, showcasing his consistency and adaptability against formidable opponents.
In a match against Manchester City at the start of December, Salah sealed victory with a decisive goal, underscoring his capability to perform in high-pressure situations. He’s got a jaw-dropping 46 combined goals and assists this season. That’s 17 more than Alexander Isak, his nearest competitor, and almost double the amount of any other player in the English top flight.
Salah’s impact is not only about goals. His vision and playmaking ability have been well noted by pundits and commentators this season. Jamie Carragher noted, “Sometimes it is about the scorer, this is about the assist.” As it stands, this statement only begins to illuminate Salah’s creative prowess, in addition to his prolificacy on goal. His ability to execute precise passes has been lauded, with Carragher stating, “That pass is absolute perfection from Salah. The weight of it, outside of the boot.”
Despite dealing with ups and downs all season, Salah continues to be committed to making an offensive impact for Liverpool. He stated, “As long as you rest me defensively, I will provide offensively,” indicating his commitment to contributing to the team’s success while balancing defensive responsibilities.
In addition to his on-field achievements, Salah signed a new contract with Liverpool earlier this season, ensuring his future with the club. His enormous versatility, hard work, and production made him a fan favorite and made him well liked by management. Ian Graham reflected on Salah’s journey, remarking, “We were beaten to Mo Salah by Chelsea in 2014 but the player we got in 2017 was much closer to the finished product.”
With the season coming to an end, Salah’s impact is still crucial in providing Liverpool with a presence that can turn the tide. It’s not just his remarkable statistics and eye-popping performances that will define his season. They enhance his candidacy for honors such as the Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year.
