#2 Mohamed Salah: One season wonder?

Liverpool v S.S.C Napoli - Pre Season Friendly
Can the Egyptian repeat his goalscoring brilliance once again next term?

In what has proved to be one of the biggest transfer bargains in the Premier League history, Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah departed Roma in favour of a £36.9million switch to Liverpool ahead of the 2017/18 campaign. The attacker shocked everyone with the way he quickly settled in at Anfield, consistently producing incredible performances that made the transfer fee look increasingly like a steal.

Salah was the Premier League's most impressive superstar last term - netting 32 goals and creating 11 more to help Liverpool finish in the top-four, whilst also breaking numerous goalscoring records while doing so. By virtue of his amazing displays, the 26-year-old was awarded the league's Golden Boot and both the FWA and PFA Player of The Year accolades.

Now, last season is a distant memory and focus has switched toward the immediate future. Can the Egyptian continue with such fantastic goalscoring form next term, or is he one of the one-season wonders who regularly pop up in England's top tier? Well, only time will tell.
