The numbers are ridiculous – 43 goals in all competitions – and the performances are as jaw-droppingly astounding as the ice-cold finishing. Assessments of the best players in the world have for so long been reduced to who should be number three behind genius duo Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Naturally, those two have been brilliant again this season, but neither can hold a candle to Mohamed Salah right now. He was sensational against Roma in the biggest match of Liverpool’s season. They were frightened to death of a player they knew inside out. It was a performance that will go down in Liverpool folklore. But there is a sense that the best is yet to come for the Egyptian king.
