It's funny isn't it because when he's retired, crossing probably won't be cited as Salah's signature strength, like with Beckham, Trent, etc...

But maybe it should be...

Very good point. Players get pigeonholed all too easily. And it's not like loads of recent crossed assists from Trent are flooding to mind like with Salah either...

'If there is a downside to writing about the incredible statistics of Mohamed Salah, it’s that he renders your work inaccurate before you’ve barely had time to share it.'

Was never a truer word said, especially after Sunday's visit to Spurs.

Enjoyed this, especially reliving the goals with the clips.

It's nice to see that a few of the top 10 are under Slot, considering we're not quite ½ way into his first season.

Probably too early to tell if there's a correlation, but I hope one develops with Mo increasingly creating better and better chances for his team mates.

I can imagine the Diaz one from Sunday wasn't probably that high, but the Szobo one was probably higher?

Those chances were 0.16 (Diaz) and 0.47 (Szoboszlai) respectively.
