Rio Ferdinand Chooses His Winner Between Prime Salah And Prime Suarez

Rio Ferdinand has chosen his winner between prime Mohamed Salah and prime Luis Suarez

In a question asked to him, Rio Ferdinand was adamant about who he would choose between prime Mohamed Salah and prime Luis Suarez.

Salah scored two sensational goals against Manchester goals and Watford in Liverpool’s last two games. The football world was amazed after watching those two pieces of beauty.

The Egyptian is now compared to the Uruguayan when it comes to goalscoring heights. The 2013/14 season for Suarez was just so good that he almost single-handedly dragged Liverpool to a Premier League title.

“I’d take Mo Salah. What he’s done in the last four seasons…I think he’s immense,” Ferdinand said on BT Sport last month.

“The icing on the cake is he’s an integral part of a team who’s won big trophies. He’s a joy to watch – an assassin in and around the box. I can’t look past him in the modern era.”

One has played for Liverpool and the other one has already became the legend for them. Explaining his answer for the question, Michael Owen said:

“The question was ‘who would you have for one season?’ right?”.

“Well the season Luis Suarez played under Brendan Rodgers [2013-14], I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. He was unbelievable, off the scale.”

There is no doubt Suarez is one of the greatest strikers in football history and has more goals than the Liverpool men. However, Salah is considerably a bigger Premier League legend than him.
