95 Micah Richards has been ranking the best left-footed players in Premier League history.
Speaking on the BBC Match of the Day Top 10 Podcast, Richards was tasked with ranking the 10 best left-footers to ever play in the Premier League.
As you can imagine, the likes of Robin van Persie, Gareth Bale and Erling Haaland all got mentions, but it was a current Liverpool player who came out on top for Richards.
Indeed, the pundit put Mohamed Salah at number one in terms of the best left-footed players to ever feature in the Premier League, while Ryan Giggs and David Silva earned places on the podium.
Mohamed Salah the best left-footer in Premier League history
Richards praised the £34m Liverpool man, putting him ahead of the likes of Silva and Giggs.
“I have gone at five, Van Persie, fourth was tough, Bale, number three David Silva, then it’s between Giggs and Salah, Salah has the numbers so I’ve gone with Giggs at number two and Salah number one,” Richards said.
Mohamed Salah may be the best in Premier League history
Forget left-footers, Mohamed Salah may well be the best player in Premier League history at this point.
His goalscoring numbers stack up with anyone else, and he’s been doing it at the highest level for such a long time now.
Salah has been absolutely immense for Liverpool for the best part of a decade now, and, in all honesty, there may not be another attacking player who has been this consistently good for so long.
Thierry Henry, Harry Kane and Alan Shearer all have strong cases to make, but Salah is very much there in that conversation.
The Egyptian has a strong case to make for being the best left-footer to ever play in England, and he might also be the best player to ever play in the Premier League.
