Antoine Griezmann

For a man with only 19 league goals last season to be given a shooting rating of 86 is taking some liberties, especially when Salah only came in with 84. As a reminder, the Liverpool lad whacked home 32 in 36 games.

Another sticking point has to be Antione Griezmann robbing an 81 passing with nine assists, while Salah came home with 10.

The French international surely has to be benefiting from another bias because he’s been around for a while and regularly impresses for France, for whom he’s scored 24 goals in 63 games.

But the stats that make Salah so dangerous aren’t just going to go away, and you can be sure he’ll have to be given another upgrade before the end of the season.
