Not for me
Salah has been brilliant and I can see why people might think that but Mane on his day for me is the best player in the league
For me it's a close run thing. Each player is top class. I've noticed that Sadio get more than his fair share of bad tackles, and I think it's done purely to provoke him and put him off his game. Salah too is attracting the same provocation, but he seems to get his head down and get on with the game. No histrionics from this boy.
Fantastic goal yesterday by him; equally fantastic cross by the little magician to get him on the end of it.
The better player, all round? Very difficult if not impossible to answer.
Here's mine: Mo.

Very different kind of player. Salah needs players to feed him but is so direct and some of his movement is amazing.
Mane will just get the ball and create something for himself if no one else will
For me that edges it for him. So blessed to have both on either flank though.

--------------------------------------------------------------------Better than Hazard? Aguero? Kane? ETC
Salah has been one of the signings of the season so far but Mane is still the boss.
Salah had played spending like 8 games for Liverpool and you are already saying he is as good as Mane?!

Em, yes, in a word. They have different styles of play, they each bring different gifts to the table, but, yes.

At least as good as mane in my opinion, and a quality signing.

He has only just joined. See how his season pans out before you start mentioning him in the same class as Mane.
Looks a good player don't get me wrong but I think you are getting ahead of yourself a little.

He's not an all rounder like Mane, but his movement is unbelievable.
He's scored 6 in 9 games and missed probably 5 sitters as well.
Movement is as good as anything I have seen since players like Andy Cole and Pip Inzaghi. The fact he's coming from wide makes him a full backs nightmare because they either have to go with him or pass him on, but he will likely be quicker than both the full back and the centre half because of his pace.
He's not great technically and he's one footed but he could well score 20 goals from wide.

So basically he is like Son then
It does make me smile that several here are indignant that Salah could possibly be compared to Mane after such a short period of time.
Go back 12 months and several (including me if I'm honest) questioned the signing of Mane. One season later, which includes long absences for ACN and injury, and you can't compare others to him!
My personal opinion is that Mane is currently better. And it's not even that close in my head. That's not a criticism of Salah as such, just a reflection of how much better Mane is than I ever expected. His close control, dribbling, finishing, decision making - all way better. Salah's movement is great though.
Either way, I'm really happy with have them both. Such an attacking threat.

Son one of the most most underrated players in the Pl.
I wouldn't say he is like Salah though.
Son is deceptively quick, reminds of Mcmanaman the way he dribbles and I think he's two footed isn't he?.
He's a goal threat like Salah though.
I think Mane is better than Suarez personally let alone Hazzard and others, Suarez was and is top top draw but he used his aggression like Gerrard to push him on. Mane is sensational and I think if he can stay fit and not have to go to cup of nations you'll see over the season how good this lad is
Salah can do anything. He can take free kicks. Seen him scoring some wonderful freekicks for Egypt. He can score headers like the brilliant goal at Leicester. Mane is also good in air. Salah passing, shooting accuracy and finishing better than Mane. Both scare defenders with their pace. Mane more strength and power and can be unstoppable. Salah is very clever and can take the ball off you without a foul. Mane has been sent off few times with Southampton once agains us and of course this season at City. Salah starts well but gets tired late on. Mane can run for ever

Ok so we can now agree that both Salah and Mane are better than Hazard

No way is that true. Mane is better than Salah at pretty much everything.
