 is also represented by the Chelsea duo of Jorginho and N'Golo Kante, as well as Kevin De Bruyne and Cristiano Ronaldo.

The other usual suspects, like Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland are also on the list.

Here's the full list of the Best FIFA Men’s Player nominees: 

Peter Crouch makes funny exaggeration as Mo Salah equals his PL scoring record

The Egyptian is tied on goals with former 

When alerted to Salah's new achievement, Crouch responded on Twitter: 

"Well done Mo it took me 1104 games And he did it quicker. Fantastic," Crouch tweeted. 

Well, Crouch was exaggerating or simply wasn't being serious there. It actually took him 468 games to score that many league goals. 

Meanwhile, Salah achieved the feat after just 170 games. Crazy. 

Drogba: 'Salah's going to destroy all my records! I want to cry'

"If he continues he’s going to destroy all my records! I want to cry," 

"What I’ve seen during training, and all his teammates will tell you, the quality was there. He just needed time on the pitch to show his talent and his quality.

"When you look at the squad we had at the time, it was not easy to play, but what really got me attached to Mo is that he’s really nice, he’s really polite, even when he was not playing.

"He was sad not to contribute, but he was always good. When you have this kind of intelligence it’s just a matter of time before you blow up.

"I remember we spoke a few times when he was at Roma and he was scoring goals and then he had a moment when he was not scoring and he asked me how to deal with this kind of situation.

"I shared with him a lot of examples and experience and how it happened to me and all the strikers."

 in 2014. It's nice to see that the Ivorian tried to help Mo even when he left Stamford Bridge for Italy in 2015.

Fast forward six years and Mo eclipses Drogba's numbers, becoming the highest-scoring African in the Premier League.

 forward netted once against Arsenal and has 108 EPL goals, four more than Drogba.

However, the Chelsea legend is still the highest-scoring African in the Champions League (36 goals compared to Mo's 31). But breaking this record shouldn't take long for the Egyptian.

Well not much to say really as we know the answer as probably already been sorted but don’t rush to back Salah as they won’t give it to him no matter how good he is.  The good thing is us fans know his value and how good he is so we don’t need to bite on that

David Hankins

Egypt has already qualified for the World Cup in Qatar.

Emmanuel Bossman

No not yet Emmanuel.  Egypt ended the group stage on top of their group.  However, since only five teams qualify from Africa to the World Cup, all top teams from the ten groups will do playoff round on March 2022 to select the five qualifiers.

Essam El Gizawy

To be among the best is a clear acknowledgment from FIFA that he is a top player.  

Salah needs to stay top scorer this season, needs that LFC to seal the PL trophy, and Egypt to qualify to the World Cup in Qatar.  This will put him in another top category and will add to his achievements to his national team.

he will also get the ballon d'Or because he managed to score his 1st league goal for psg

Gordon Welham
