Over the past few years, Liverpool’s offensive has improved as a whole, but Mohamed Salah has changed personally as well. The Egyptian’s play is getting better.

Underappreciated was Mohamed Salah’s second-half display against Wolves. However, even if it has become the norm, it is still extremely easy to understand how influential he was very quickly.

One is that, despite the fact that the third goal may not have been an assist due to the deflection that led to an own goal, he was involved in all three of them. The Egyptian, however, excelled in every respect.

In the opening period, everyone wearing a Liverpool shirt labored as Salah attempted and failed to rush at his target, Wolves defender Rayan At-Nouri. In the second half, he was not need to.

While playing for Liverpool, Salah was frequently and completely erroneously referred to be a “selfish” or “greedy” player, but it should no longer be a criticism leveled at him. Over the past season or two, he has evolved into a goal scorer and a goal creator in equal measure.

He now ranks first in the Premier League for creating huge chances and producing assists, while placing second for taking part in goals and anticipating assists. He surpassed the Premier League record for the most goals an African player has assisted over the last weekend.

Salah has scored more goals for Liverpool than any other player in the Premier League, and only Thierry Henry scored 200 goals in the league in fewer games than Salah.

Both a creator and a goal scorer, Salah. Additionally, a pattern has existed for some time. He has now scored or provided an assist in 11 straight league games, amassing 44 goals or assists in his last 31 Premier League contests.

This is a player that adapts and changes constantly. It is absurd to think that he even entertained the thought of moving to Saudi Arabia this summer given how much his game has changed and how long he will be able to play at this level. What a waste for a guy who is still one of the best in the world, it would have been.

As he completely enters his 30s, Salah seems to be following in the footsteps of Lionel Messi. The Argentine demonstrated one strategy for maintaining dominance of the game for as long as possible by becoming into a world-class playmaker who set up as many goals as he scored.

Salah and Messi appear to relish the opportunity to try something new, whilst Cristiano Ronaldo may have chosen to settle into the role of a number nine who only completes moves and does little else.

It isn’t really ‘new’ to either player, of course. Like Messi, Salah will continue to score goals, but perhaps this year the Egyptian will provide more assists than ever. Not simply because of the weapons he has by his side, but because it appears likely.
