This is Austin Matthews good!
Except that Liverpool also managed to actually win the game

I definitely looked at the whole of how Suarez performed before coming to this conclusion. One way it is easy to look at the whole of Salah's performances is seeing how many goals Firmino is scoring as a #9 now compared to last season. I thought the best performance either of these players had considering competition was a game Suarez played against Zenit, Salah has still not approached that level in any singular game. It is still every week with this stuff. Suarez also scored from a few free kicks, which Salah has not yet done. That is an impact all of its own as well, but there's something else people seem to not realize. Suarez scored zero times against a top four team that year. That's something I did not make up, it's 100% fact. You make of it what you want.
I know a lot of people think that Ronaldo is less important, and I wasn't trying to say he's not important or fantastic for Liverpool, but Ronaldo has also been doing it for a long time and Salah hasn't hit those peaks. I just think Suarez had a bigger impact overall on the team. But again, my preference for Suarez's top season over what Salah is currently doing isn't a slight against Salah. I just think there's a very legitimate argument that Suarez's last season with us was the best season an individual has had in the PL maybe ever. Salah could certainly get up to that level.Does anyone think Ronaldo is less important to RM's success than the other players there? That's effectively the argument and in those terms, Ronaldo's impact on RM speaks for itself. I mean, you can't have it both ways here. I believe you're one of the people who talks about how great Ronaldo is. Well, this one speaks for itself. That all being said this is still only a debut season. It could get better or it could get worse. Ultimately time will tell. Personally I believe Suarez got better after leaving Liverpool, but a lot of other players around the world improved at the same time and the recognition he should probably get will never come to him, for both that and other reasons.
Saturday was Salah's equivalent of Suarez in 2013-14 Norwich home. He still hasn't had a second leg vs. Zenit performance.I definitely looked at the whole of how Suarez performed before coming to this conclusion.
