Liverpool Must Keep Mohamed Salah: The World’s Best Player Right Now

The king is ruling at every level you could possibly name right now. There’s a brilliance that resonates when discussing Mohamed Salah, a brilliance so profound that it’s impossible to ignore. Week after week, Salah steps onto the pitch, delivering moments that transcend football. He isn’t just Liverpool’s talisman; he’s the best player in the world right now. For Liverpool, the priority is simple: they must keep Salah at Anfield. Whatever club would let the best player in the world walk off into the sunset on a free?

Record-Breaking Form: Salah’s Unstoppable Momentum

Salah’s form in the Premier League this season has been nothing short of sensational. Over his last seven matches, Salah has either scored or assisted in every game, a run that demonstrates his consistency and influence. Newcastle went the way of Chelsea, Manchester City and Aston Villa in finding themselves victim to the goal and assist performance.

Salah also overtakes Rooney as the premier league’s all time record holder now. These performances highlight a player who not only scores but creates. His ability to impact games in multiple ways is what separates him from other top attackers. Salah doesn’t just deliver; he delivers when it matters most, and his performances have been pivotal in keeping Liverpool in the hunt for silverware this season.

Salah Surpasses Haaland: A Leader in the Golden Boot Race

The Premier League’s top scorer chart paints a clear picture: Mohamed Salah has overtaken Erling Haaland. With 13 goals and eight assists in just 14 matches, Salah’s all-round contribution dwarfs Haaland’s 12 goals and one assist in the same number of appearances. Salah leads in goals-per-90 minutes with 0.95 compared to Haaland’s 0.86, and his minutes-per-goal figure of 95 is more efficient than Haaland’s 105.

These numbers prove that Salah is not just about volume but about impact and variety in his game. Other players in the mix, like Chelsea’s Cole Palmer with nine goals and six assists, and Nottingham Forest’s Chris Wood, with nine goals but no assists, cannot match Salah’s level of consistency or versatility. Salah’s ability to dominate both as a scorer and creator makes him the undisputed leader in the Premier League this season.

All-Competitions Record: Salah’s Season in Numbers

If Salah’s Premier League form wasn’t already convincing, his overall record across all competitions this season cements his status as the best in the world. In 24 games across the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and EFL Cup, Salah has registered 15 goals and 12 assists. That’s 27 direct goal contributions in just 1,703 minutes of football.

On average, Salah contributes a goal or assist every 63 minutes—a truly remarkable feat. In the Champions League, Salah has delivered four goals and an assist in just five matches, continuing to shine on Europe’s biggest stage. His relentless work rate, precision, and hunger for success make him invaluable to Liverpool, both domestically and internationally.

Salah’s Importance: Arne Slot’s Insight

Even our own managers can’t help but acknowledge Salah’s brilliance. Arne Slot summed it up perfectly: “Every time we need Mo Salah, he scores a goal.” These words highlight what every Liverpool supporter already knows: Salah is the player you can rely on, a talisman who steps up when the stakes are highest. It’s this consistency, this ability to rise to the occasion, that makes Salah not just a star but a legend in the making. His value isn’t confined to numbers—it’s in the moments he creates and the hope he instils every time he steps onto the pitch.

Keeping Salah: Liverpool’s Non-Negotiable Mission

For Liverpool, Salah is more than just a player—he’s the beating heart of their ambitions. His ability to score, assist, and inspire his teammates is unmatched. Losing him would create a void that no other player could fill. Edwards, Hughes and anyone else in Liverpool’s management must do everything to ensure Salah remains at the club. This is not just about footballing decisions; it’s about safeguarding Liverpool’s future at the pinnacle of the sport. In a world where players like Haaland dominate headlines, Salah continues to prove that he’s the ultimate player of this era.
