Salah s record journey! Liverpool legend crowns the Premier League and aims at the greatest season in history
Raising the team trophy is the motivation to motivate Salah. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have renewed his contract with Liverpool. Although the Saudi league can provide a richer salary, Merseyside can achieve more glory. As he said after Liverpool won the Premier League for the 20th time last weekend: "All teams will win the game, but in the end there is only one championship, which is what history remembers. "
The Egyptian star is proud of his key role in the team's success, and this sense of pride is both obvious and rightful. At the celebration of the 5-1 victory over Tottenham to detonate Anfield carnival, Salah revealed that he had advised coach Slotte as early as the beginning of the season: reducing defensive tasks will improve offensive efficiency. Salah told reporters: "I'm glad I did this. After the coach adopted the advice, the data said it all."
The 32-year-old Salah's performance of 28 goals and 18 assists this season is the peak of his career. He has broken multiple records in the past nine months, and this new contract, which lasts until 2027, is destined to witness the birth of more legends.
Christmas Gifts that arrived early
After two previous points against Newcastle and Fulham, Liverpool re-declared its dominance in the Premier League with a shocking performance of 6-3 on December 23 last year.
This day was even more meaningful to Salah. He not only scored twice in North London, but also assisted Sobosloy and Dias one after another.
With his performance in this game, he achieved the "goal and assisted double ten" feat for the fourth consecutive year and the sixth time in total (both were Premier League records), and became the first player in history to achieve this achievement before Christmas.
He told reporters: "To be honest, I didn't think about this before the game, but I'm glad to do it, which makes me happy. I'm proud of the record and will continue to do my best."
Compared with Messi
on February 24, Liverpool defeated Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium and secured the championship with an iconic victory. Without any suspense, Salah once again became the focus of the game.
Only 14 minutes into the game, he broke the deadlock with his exquisite corner kick tactics. Sobosloy cleverly stroked the close point, helping Salah easily push the ball to score. Before the end of the half, the roles of the golden partners were swapped: the Egyptian king made a goal for the Hungarian midfielder, and the latter's burst shot changed the score to 2-0, completely killing the suspense.
This game has brought Salah to history again. He has become the first player since Messi to contribute goals and assists in 11 games in a single season in the five major European leagues. It is more worth mentioning that no player in the history of the Premier League has been able to complete both home and away matches in the defending champions.
After this match, Salah's total data against Guardiola coached the team reached 9 goals and 6 assists (a total of 15 direct goals were scored), and another legendary record was born.
A record of past, and the new legend is to be continued. Just two days after renewing the two-year contract with Liverpool, Salah used his magical performance to interpret the reason why the club kept a lot of money. In the match against West Ham United, he sent a wonderful cross across the defense from the outside of his left foot, helping Dias easily push the ball to the empty goal.
This assist also rewritten the history of the Premier League: Salah scored 45 goals directly in the 2024-25 season, setting a new record under the 38-round Premier League match system. What is even more amazing is that he is very likely to win the record of the 42-round match system.
After scoring against Tottenham last week, the Egyptian star scored 45 goals (goals + assists) in just 34 games. He only needs to participate in two more goals in the remaining four games and will surpass the old record held by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole.
Considering that Salah has promised to play for Liverpool for at least two more years, it is no luxury to reach the top of the Premier League's history. He currently ranks fifth with 270 goals, but it's only a matter of time before he surpasses Giggs (271) and Lampard (279). If he maintains his current efficiency (it seems to be no sign of decay at the moment), he is even expected to surpass Rooney (311 times) and Shearer (324 times).
Comparing with Henry: The assist frenzy has been upgraded again
Henry is almost recognized as the best player in Premier League history, but Salah is threatening the throne of the French legend with an amazing posture, and he is about to tie Henry's records that shocked the past and present.
The greatness of Arsenal's scorer king in history is that he can both destroy cities and assist. Henry is still the only achiever in the Premier League's single season "20+ goals and 20+ assists", and he also maintains a record of 20 assists in a single season with Manchester City legend De Bruyne.
Now Salah is only two assists away to unlock these two miracles at the same time. Even if the championship is settled, you can still foresee that the Egyptian Pharaoh will pester coach Slot and demand to play all four remaining games. The temptation of the legend has never been irresistible.
The fourth golden boot? The first time to hit the European Golden Boot!
Salah not only hopes to continue to set the assist record at the end of the season, but also eye the number of goals. First of all, the Premier League Golden Boot battle has not yet been settled. Although he leads 6 goals by 28 goals ahead of Isaac (22 goals), the hot-formed Swedish striker is leading Newcastle to a Champions League place, and Haaland (21 goals) who has returned from injury will also launch a campaign with the help of Manchester City's sweet schedule in the final stage.
However, Egyptian pharaoh is still very likely to tie Henry's record of winning the Premier League Golden Boot four times. What's more eye-catching is that he is only one step away from his first European Golden Boot Award in his career: Although Portuguese sports striker Gicres currently leads the list, Salah is only 1 point (European Golden Boot Points System). Since the Premier League goal coefficient (2.0) is higher than that of the Portuguese Super League (1.5), the Liverpool superstar is likely to come from behind. In the 2017-18 season, he scored 32 goals and broke the Premier League 38 round record, but lost to Messi (34 goals), and may be compensated this season. Where will
Salah finally be ranked?
When the dust settles this season, people will surely start to examine what position the Egyptian superstar will occupy in the English football hall of honor.
After scoring twice against Southampton on March 8, he exclusively enjoyed the third place in the Liverpool team's history scorer list with 243 goals. Although Ian Rush (346 goals) has temporarily solidified the top spot (unless Salah renews his contract two years later), Roger Hunter (285 goals) has entered his range. You should know that Salah's total career goals in a single season have never been less than 23 goals.
In the Premier League, he just entered the top ten of the all-time assists with 87 assists, but it is almost impossible to surpass Giggs (162 times). Hiller's 260-goal record is also difficult to shake, but now fifth-ranked Salah is expected to replace Harry Kane (213 goals) to occupy the second place.
The premise of all this is that he must maintain the current nearly absurd stable output, which is by no means easy. But there is no doubt that with this epic season, Salah has undisputedly ranked among the greatest players in Premier League history.
