#3 Mohamed Salah | Liverpool
Liverpool marksman Mohamed Salah is currently in the form of his life. His brilliant return of ten goals and five assists in just nine Premier League appearances proves there is clearly no stopping Salah.
While his remarkable performances for the Reds have taken the world by storm, his selfishness has been the talk of the town as well. In the Premier League, Salah has averaged over four shots per game, scoring once every four shots. Critics will argue that he could have passed the ball instead of taking a number of those shots.
Sadio Mane and Salah went viral after Mane's frustration at the Egyptian international was evident after a missed shot. Salah raced into the area and went for goal himself instead of passing to Mane, who was unmarked and in a much better position to score.
More recently, Liverpool legend Graham Souness described Salah as "the most selfish player I've ever seen."
#2 Cristiano Ronaldo | Manchester United
Call him what you will, Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliance on the field and dedication to the game is unparalleled. He has been termed selfish, self-centered, and even egotistic. But the Portuguese maestro has developed a habit of responding to his critics by scoring more goals on the field.
Ronaldo often takes the lone-ranger approach, driving into the final third with no intention of passing, and this can be problematic for his teammates. While at Real Madrid and Juventus, Ronaldo averaged nearly seven shots per ninety minutes. It is safe to assume this trend might continue at Old Trafford.
Ronaldo has been constantly criticized by many pundits and even fellow players for this as well. While he was still at Juventus, Antonio Cassano famously criticized the player, explaining:
"He’s always been selfish. He doesn’t care if others score, he only lives to score himself. He doesn’t live for football, he lives for his own goals, it’s clear."
#1 Neymar | Paris Saint-Germain
Articles titled "Why does Neymar get so much hate?" and "Neymar: Selfish brat or misunderstood genius?" quickly came up during Google searches of the Brazilian. While it seems uncalled for from the peripheries, it's hardly surprising.
Neymar came to the attention of European clubs when his showboating antics and dribbling skills stole the show at Santos. His time at Barcelona and his current stint with PSG haven't been very different either.
His South American style of play complemented Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez at Barcelona. However, many French fans and pundits constantly complain about Neymar.
Without a doubt, the Brazilian international is one of the best players in the world, and his solo goals are incredible. However, his selfishness with the ball can be a source of frustration for his teammates, as well as viewers and pundits.
Last month, Kylian Mbappe admitted to complaining about Neymar's selfishness to Idrissa Gueye. PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino ultimately had to bring both players together during training to ensure there were no hard feelings.
Also take a look at Neymar's team, the previous and current one.
