The two front-runners to win the PFA Player of the Year award

#4 Salah is simply rewriting the history books

Liverpool v Watford - Premier League
Salah is on course to rewrite every goalscoring record in the Premier League

Three times Premier League Player of the Month. Top scoring Egyptian in the league. Top scoring debut season for a club in the league. Most left-footed goals ever scored in the league. And being just two goals away from being the all-time top goalscorer in a Premier League season!

You do not possess these records unless you have, what we can say it, a dream season. 40 goals in all competitions, Mohamed Salah has had a season of reckoning for Liverpool where he has effectively made the jump from being a talented forward to a world-class goalscorer.

With a potential 7 more games to come for Liverpool, Salah also has the chance to become the club's highest ever goalscorer for a season - a record currently held by Ian Rush with 47 goals. All these records make one possess a chance of winning the Ballon d'Or, so it is safe to say that Salah is the best choice to be the PFA Player of the Year.
