BaleRank these 5 wingers/wide forwards overall:
Salah, Hazard, Robben, Bale, Ribery.
Inspired by the Salah vs Bale Redcafe thread.
Hazard is the most talented. Robben and Ribery were always very highly rated and had a lot of raw ability. Bale edges Salah because young Bale was a huge superstar right after he changed his position. Bale's natural pace, power, shooting ability, crossing and set plays are better than Salah. Salah had to work his way up and had failures as a young prospect.Respect your opinion as always mate. I must say though I am surprised to see Salah bottom on talent - I thought he'd at least be above Bale. Although obviously even the lowest is a 9 at least in talent.
Clutch means big games, high pressure moments.Also, clutch, x factor and on their day all seem similar to me.
Talk soon mate.
They’re not winning shitif Pool win another PL/CL combo.

Clutch means big games, high pressure moments.
X Factor means decisive individual ability in any game.
On their day signifies their performance levels when they were in form and at their best.
There's definitely a bit of overlap here....... 😅
You don’t need to post this at the end of every postAnd with that I really should go offline and do other stuff
Oh, Mo definitely didn't lack talent.Fair post.
I would simply suggest that Salah is the only non-European here and - reading his story - had to make a lot of personal sacrifices as a kid to get to the top of European football. I think he had to work up to the top not because of lack of talent (relatively speaking), but because of not being lucky enough to be part of European academies. I guess you could argue though that he didn't stand out enough as a kid to be picked up by one in Europe.
Other than that, I enjoy all the posts in here and the thread.
