Mohamed Salah is the name on the lips of every football fan right now.

Liverpool's main man was absolute dynamite in the team's 2-2 draw with Manchester City, a performance which further enhanced his status as one of the Premier League's greatest ever players.

In terms of wingers, the Egyptian is right up there with the very best and he appears to only be getting better with age.

So given that Salah's latest masterclass is still fresh in the mind, we've decided to have a go at ranking the best wide players to have graced English football in the Premier League era.

Using Tiermaker, we've ranked various legendary figures from 'making up the numbers' to 'the best of the best' and naturally, our opinion won't satisfy everyone.

Some tough calls had to be made and we apologise in advance for any offence caused...

Is Mo Salah the best player in the world? | Football Terrace

Making up the numbers: Nani, Steve McManaman, Arjen Robben & John Barnes

Just because these four are in the bottom tier doesn't mean we don't rate them, because each member of the quartet excelled in the Premier League.

However, they're just not quite at the level of those below. Robben's best days came at Bayern Munich, Nani flattered to deceive for much of his Manchester United career and McManaman enjoyed more success at Real Madrid.

As for Barnes, while he's one of the greatest wingers English football has seen, the peak of his club career came in the old First Division rather than the Premier League.

Prior to the 1992/93 rebrand, Barnes netted 62 league goals in 152 games for Liverpool, but afterwards, he managed just 22 in 162 appearances - a noticeable decline.

Decent: Marc Overmars & Freddie Ljungberg

Both Overmars and Ljungberg were absolutely electric during their respective times at Arsenal.

The former was a key man behind Arsene Wenger's first domestic double in 1997/98 and the latter's eye for goal was instrumental in the Gunners' unbeaten Premier League campaign in 2003/04.

How Arsenal could do with a player like one of them in the present day...

Quality: Ryan Giggs, Alexis Sanchez, David Ginola & David Beckham

Giggs' place in the middle of the pack is by virtue of his incredible longevity in the Premier League era and the fact he's still the division's leading assister.

Sanchez was agonisingly close to being higher up due to his stellar stint at Arsenal, but the Chilean's infamous struggles at United meant we just couldn't do it.

Ginola's Premier League career is actually criminally underrated in the present day, especially given that he was named PFA Players' Player of the Year and FWA Footballer of the Year in 1998/99 while playing for a Spurs side that finished 11th in the table.

As for Beckham, some choose to think the former England captain is overrated, but that's just simply not the case. I mean, he finished as the runner-up for the Ballon d'Or in 1999 for goodness sake...

World-class: Eden Hazard, Robert Pires, Gareth Bale & Raheem Sterling

In his prime at Chelsea, few players in world football were superior to Hazard and the same can certainly be said about Pires when the Frenchman was weaving his magic at Arsenal in the early 2000s.

Sterling's inclusion in the 'world-class' category will likely spark a lot debate, but hear us out on this one. The Manchester City man's goal record is phenomenal, with 79 to his name in 202 Premier League appearances for the Citizens - numbers any out-and-out striker would be proud of.

Sterling is also one of a select few wingers to net 20 goals in a league season, which he achieved in the 2019/20 campaign.

Bale actually went one better and scored 21 times in 2012/13 for Spurs, hence why the Welshman makes the cut as well.

The best of the best: Mohamed Salah & Cristiano Ronaldo

It was impossible to pick a winner out of Salah and Ronaldo, so they're our joint-winners.

Salah's goal record in the Premier League is actually far superior to the United man's, but Ronaldo's overall impact in the division cannot be underplayed.

The Portuguese superstar is the last player from a team in the English top-flight to win the Ballon d'Or, which he achieved in 2008.

Both Ronaldo and Salah have also scored 30+ goals in a league season while playing out wide, which is just absolutely outrageous.

So there you have it, a ranking that we're sure will antagonise a few. But overall, we think it's pretty solid.

In case you were wondering, Liverpool's Sadio Mane was unavailable on Tiermaker. However, if he were included, we'd have put the Senegalese star in the 'world-class' bracket - a call that probably would have caused some controversy.
