I think that’s fair, and comparing with Kane isn’t like for like. It was a quick and easy reach on my part as an example of a real “finisher” someone who’ll score ugly goals etc. Salah is a perfect comparison which better highlights the differences. In 6 seasons with Liverpool he has 137 league goals, 53 assists (18000 minutes). In 9 seasons Son has 103 goals, 53 assists. (19,575 minutes).

Salah is an example that shows Son isn’t a great. Just pretty good.

Stick to the Romanian 5th division.

Shitting on Sonny to show how smart you are doesn't come across how you think it does.

It's a difference of something like 39 games, which is more like a season's difference, not 3. You also bypass the fact that Liverpool have been set up to make him, and to a lesser degree Mane, their main goal threats, whilst we have been geared to make Kane ours.

Also Son doesn't take penalties, so Salah's goals for are slightly skewed. From open play, they're pretty comparable.

He's a lot better than 'pretty good' mate. He might not be classed as a great goalscorer, when compared to elite strikers, but as a wide forward he simply has to be classed as a a great goalscorer for his role.

He’s definitely more than pretty good. He’s in a small % of wide players who can hit those goal numbers consistently without penalties.

Limited footballer in many aspects but incredible finisher at his peak & capable of great goals too.

Salah is in a class of his own when it comes to recent PL wide players.
 
Same bullshit source but would prefer to keep Davinson if that was the choice between the 2

Can't we have a third option?
