Fans in bits as YouTube pundit claims Welbeck is better ‘all round’ than Salah

Danny Welbeck is a better all round player than Mo Salah … at least according to one very brazen YouTube pundit.

Lee Gunner, an Arsenal-supporting football commenter with over 73,000 subscribers, made the contentious claim during a recent episode of The Football Terraces' Straight Facts, asserting that Welbeck is a better dribbler and overall technician than Salah, who he described as "very limited".

"Welbeck is a better all round footballer than Mohamed Salah. That ain't even debatable," said Lee. "With technical ability, dribbling, first touch, Danny Welbeck is better in all.

"Danny Welbeck is a better overall footballer than Mohamed Salah. Salah's got an elite-level output and well done to him, but he's a limited footballer."

As you might have expected, his claim was roundly ridiculed on social media, with one person tweeting: "Never in my life have I ever heard something that stupid".

"Danny Welbeck better than Salah, what is this guy on about," commented another, while a third joked: "He'll be on talkSPORT soon with daft opinions like that!"

After making an uncharacteristically slow start to the season, Salah has burst into life over the past couple of weeks, netting a seven-minute hat-trick against Rangers in the Champions League and a stunning winner against Manchester City.

Welbeck, who who has made over 250 appearances in the Premier League across spells with Manchester United, Arsenal, Watford and Brighton, is yet to score a single goal this season despite starting every one of the Seagulls' opening 10 matches.
