I'm trying to imagine Muslim kids chanting something similar about the Jewish or Christian faiths at a rally in London. The Prevent folks, counter-terrorism police, the entire British media would be all over the story, asking why Muslims are so extreme & brainwashing their kids.
My "Roman Empire is the realization that my life is a lottery win. Somewhere in Sudan, Pålestine, iran, Afghanistan, Iraq or Congo, there is a boy smarter than me. He is more disciplined, more resilient, and holds more potential in his single finger than I do in my entire career.
The only difference? I am siting in a train and he is sting in the rubble of his dreams.
My "bad days" are his wildest dreams.
My "burnout" is a luxury he can't afford because his only job is staying alive.
It's geographical luck and it's a haunting injustice that we all refuse to acknowledge and look away
Salah when he’s done with his career rank as the greatest player ever in EPL only behind Henry, and it’s because like Salah Henry dominated eras,
No one has done it like Salah and in a long time we won’t see someone else to do it like him
because what Mohamed Salah has done isn’t just about numbers it’s about sustained dominance in the most competitive era the Premier League has ever seen.
Season after season, different managers, tactical shifts, evolving squads and yet Salah remains the constant. Goals, assists, chance creation, availability… he doesn’t dip. That level of consistency over such a long period is what separates great players from era-defining legends.
When you look at Henry, it wasn’t just that he was the best it was how far ahead he was of everyone else at his peak. Salah has replicated that feeling in a different way. Maybe not always as aesthetically dominant, but in terms of output and influence, he’s been the reference point of the league for years.
This is a player who arrived and immediately broke the league’s goal record in a 38-game season not slowly adapting, not needing years he set the tone from day one. And instead of that being his peak, it became his standard.
Then you add the weight of what he delivered at Liverpool FC ending a 30-year wait for a league title, bringing the UEFA Champions League back to the club, adding the FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup and not as a background figure, but as the face of it all.
Individually, the game kept recognising him because it had no choice. (4) Premier League Golden Boots, PFA Players’ Player of the Year, FWA Footballer of the Year, (2) playmaker not one-off moments, but repeated acknowledgement that he was that guy in the league.
And the key thing is, Salah didn’t have a short window. He stretched it. Different title races, different tactical systems, new teammates coming in, others declining and somehow he stayed at the centre of it all. Goals every season. Assists every season. Decisive moments every season.
You can’t tell the story of modern Premier League football without him. You can’t explain Liverpool’s golden era without him. You can’t define consistency at the highest level without mentioning him.
And for a long time after him, that kind of inevitability won’t come around again.
He’s top 2 Greatest ever in Premier league.
