Performance of the week Mohamed Salah is still looking for his first league goal since September, but the Egypt starlet can't stop dishing out quality assists for his Basel teammates...two against Sporting Lisbon and one against Thun. Maestro Abd-Rabou As Salah had a fine week with Basel, Hosni Abd-Rabou also impressed in Al-Nasr's 2-1 Saudi league win over Al-Faisali, brilliantly setting up Jaime Ayovi with a goal. Mohamed Zidan scored from the spot to help Bani Yas thrash Ajman 5-0 in the UAE league. But Shikabala watched his team Al-Wasl endure yet another defeat, losing 2-1 to Al-Shabab to slip to ninth in the UAE league. Ahmed Elmohamady's Hull City suffered a surprise 1-0 home defeat to Burnley, with Adam El-Abd (injury) and Mido (lack of fitness) did not feature for Brighton and Barnsley. Amr Zaki started another game for Elazigspor but was substituted in the 56th minute as his side lost to Turkish league holders Galatasaray 1-0. Managers suffer It was a week to forget for Egyptian managers abroad, with all of them suffering respective defeats. In Belgium, Hany Ramzy's Lierse lost 3-0 at Standard Liege in the Egyptian's second game in charge. The highly-respected Hassan Shehata saw his Qatari side Al-Arabi succumb to a second straight defeat, losing 3-1 to Um Salal, meaning they are still looking for their first league win this season. In Saudi Arabia, Mohamed Salah's Al-Shoalah lost 1-0 to Ittihad Jeddah, while Hajr of Tarek Yehia were defeated 2-1 by Al-Shabab.
