This season has every potential to be the best for Liverpool and Mohamed Salah in the last 10 years or more. After initial pessimism when long-time coach Jurgen Klopp decided to leave and the management decided to appoint Arne Slot, the Reds fans are the most optimistic people on the planet at the moment. After 6-3 thrashing of Tottenhem in North London, Liverpool are at the top of the table with only one defeat so far and with four points more then second-placed Chelsea, with a game in hand. The Premier League title is looking more realistic after every round. And one of the biggest reasons for such a fantastic display is Mohamed Salah, who is (again) having a fantastic season. The Egyptian forward scored a brace in a big win over Spurs and added two more assists in that game, which raised his number of Premier League assist to 10, and with his 13 goals scored, he became the first player in Premier League history to hit double figures in both categories before Christmas. This is also the sixth Premier League season in which the Eqyptian has both scored and assisted 10+ goals; the most of any player in the competition’s history (overtaking Wayne Rooney’s five). Brutal Slot machine makes fun of Ange’s vulnerable gangSalah also reached another milestone in Sunday‘s win. He officially moved up to the fourth place in Liverpool‘s all time scorers list. On his 373rd appearance for the club, he scored 229th goals and moved above the legendary Billy Liddell, who ended his Reds career with 228 strikes from 534 appearances between 1946 and 1960. Salah’s remarkable haul since arriving on Merseyside in 2017 includes 170 Premier League goals, 44 in the Champions League, six FA Cup strikes, five in the Europa League, three in the League Cup and one Community Shield goal. Just three men have now scored more times for Liverpool than the current No.11: Ian Rush (346), Roger Hunt (285) and Gordon Hodgson (241).Finally! Liverpool start talks with Salah“Of course, I didn’t think I about it before the game to be fair, but I’m glad that I’ve done it a few times. So yeah, something makes me happy. I’m proud, and just keep working hard. Of course, it’s something great to achieve. It’s such a big club like Liverpool. But again, the most important thing is we won the game, and they had that achievement. It’s great. I don’t know how he scored that many goals to be fair. I think the football in that time was quite seven against seven. It wasn’t really 11 against 11, but he’s a great legend for the club, and we have a good contact. So whatever I’m gonna end my career with, I’m happy about it. So let’s see“ Salah said to Sky Sports after the game. ##NAJAVA_MECA_8586415##
