Top 5 big game players in the world right now

#1 Mohammed Salah

Mohammed Salah is a serious contender for the Ballon d'Or

Mohammed Salah has literally lit up the 2017-18 season and I bet even the non-Liverpool supporters have enjoyed watching him. No wonder he is being considered as a serious contender for the Ballon d'Or 2018.

Besides maintaining consistency in finding the net, he has been immensely influential for Liverpool in crucial games this season.

Amongst the big six in the Premier League, the Egyptian has scored against every team except Manchester United. Coming to the Champions League, he was menacing against Manchester City in the quarterfinals, providing an assist and scoring 2 goals over two legs. Further, he also scored a brace and provided 2 assists against Roma, as Liverpool inched a step closer to the Champions League final.

However, the highlight of his reputation as a big game player was his brace against Congo that ensured Egypt's first World Cup qualification since 1990.

With the World Cup just around the corner, it will be exciting to see how well the Egyptian lights up Russia with his impressive performances.
