Even as a United fan who absolutely can't stand Liverpool, I think it would be an injustice If he wasn't in the top three in the Ballon d'Or this year
Mo Salah
- Thread starter Robbie Boy
- Start date
He's been better than both Messi and Ronaldo this season imo. He should really be winning the Balon d'Or. I guess the World Cup will decide things.
Yeah but we all know how the BDO voting goes, purely political, Messi, Ronaldo and Neymar has the advantage of being Brazilian and reputation while Salah and KDB don't. He 1000% should be, but of course that implies people are going to vote fair, I just think Salah will have to be the best player in the world to influence enough votes to get the nod over Neymar.
Should win the PFA POTY for sure imo
An incredible season.
An incredible season.
Does he play darts as well?
Dunno about Salah but I'd hate to be marking a game when Sterling is playing. Probably get stabbed about 9 times.
He’s currently in the top 3 for the ballon d’or. A champions league win,PL Top scorer and a few good games at the WC and he’ll be ahead of ronaldo.
I think what Ronaldo’s done in the last few months is staggering, and more individually influential than salah.
Aye, but watching him do the run on to music, would be fecking hilarious.
Agreed. What a season and what a player.
He’a definitely top 3 for me unfortunately and big conversation to be had if he leads Liverpool to a better CL finish than Madrid(unlikely obviously)
Should be in the Top 3 for the Ballon D'Or.
You think Argentina are winning the world cup?
I have to agree. The little git has made all the difference to Liverpool's season and has proven a superb signing.
Read what you quote old pal.
Ronaldo vs Salah for the Ballon d’Or
Very true. He has also given a lot of money for projects in Egypt.
He will win it if Liverpool win the CL. He won't if Madrid do.
Unless Messi wins a World Cup it is going to Cristiano again.
Why do you hate him? Genuine question. He’s like the most honest down to earth footballer out there
That's good to hear; well done to him.
Calm down. It's WC year
Ignoring WC here, to put him above Messi, I think Liverpool have to win the CL. Especially if Barca do go undefeated, which is so heavily influenced by Messi. I'm not so sure Mo's influence on Liverpool this year will have been as big despite the goals - they are super fluid as a unit which is a lot down to Klopp - but get to that CL final.....the discussion opens up a bit. Given they are pretty much in equal standing right now - I probably would also have him above Ronaldo....due to the fact Mo has done it all season.
I think KDB needs a really good World Cup really...same with Neymar otherwise your top 3 are as above.
Ballon d'Or could actually be kind of intriguing this year. Given that a Germany or Spain win probably wouldn't propel anyone specific to winning it.
Actually thought he was quite uninvolved early on for the most part when City were in control, still got his goal and looked very impressive as the game wore on.
Spain will win the World Cup, Madrid will win the CL and Sergio Ramos will get the Ballon d'Or, that's it :P
Anyone know how many years he has left on his contract?
...asking cuz like Suarez and Coutinho, is Salah a player who’d possibly leave Liverpool for a Barca/Madrid/PSG/Bayern ?

If Salah takes Egypt on a decent run in the world cup or if livers win the champs league it would be hard to argue against him getting the ballon d'or.
Good on him for being in this form, everything he touches turns to goals

Salah is a gentleman on and off the pitch and a terrific role model as well. What makes you hate him?
He's blessed by the Egyptian gods. He has all the three cards.
He deserves to be a candidate for Ballon d'Or for sure.

I approve of this post
I certainly would not mind him or someone like him with us.
I think the big clubs are going to give him another season at Liverpool. If he keeps it up then someone will buy him for 80+ mill euros. Probably Real Madrid.
80+?! Admittedly that includes what I’m about to say but it’s more like 150+. He keeps this level up no way he’s off for less than Coutinho. Even if he drops off a little bit he’s still worth Coutinho money to us.
I don't see Salah leaving Liverpool for less than 120/130M even if he is leaving this summer.
See if Coutinho goes for 150m how can Salah, who is clearly performing better than Coutinho has ever done, go for less?
Yea I agree with the Balon d'or talk here. He should absolutely be in consideration for it. He hasn't just scored goals, he's scored important goals. Makes goal scoring look so simple.
There's been talk he's antisemetic. though, I don't know if true.

Will be £200m at least imo. He does not seem the type to create a fuss about leaving, hope that’s the case if Madrid start sniffing. If we ever want to win a league, then we can’t keep selling our best players everytime it looks like we are getting close.
Keep Salah, get another defender, another midfielder, and a winger who can also play as a forward and we will be close.

He's sickening.
Must be one of the rare Pool players whom I like. Goes about his business. Doesn't talk s**t about other teams (at least as of now).
No fancy show offs. Has a genuine smile on the face.
And is not worried about the golden boot
