Hist now arguing exclusively based on goals and assists, the thing he ridicules everyone else for doing.
Unfortunately that doesn't suit his argument here so.... he ignores it.
Now, to argue the points he is usually on about...
#HistModeOn
Salah is an all out attacking player and hardly contributes outside of this, as well as not contributing near as much to attacking build-up as Cuadrado.
Cuadrado is massively better defensively, hence the reason he can play WB very well in a 3-5-2 and contribute defensively along his wing. Salah doesn't contribute at all defensively.
Cuadrado receives the ball far deeper than Salah, and is far more involved in bringing the play forward and starting out attacks for our forwards to finish off. Salah is rarely involved in this aspect of the game and is much more so a player meant to finish off attacks for Roma.
Very different players, asked to fulfil very different purposes for the teams they play for. Cuadrado fits quite well in this team due to his ability to play WB in our strongest formation, 3-5-2. Salah would be useless here and wouldn't even play.

According to the precious whoscored ratings you brought up the other day.
Cuadrado 7.37 for Juve in Serie A.
Salah 7.19 for Roma in Serie A.
Cuadrado > Salah again and again. The fact 1 of them plays at least half or more of his appearances as a WB, and the other only plays as an attacking wing forward, should make any comparison based exclusively on goals and assists quite obviously absurd. Obviously an attacking winger should far outdo a Wingback in goals scored.
