He could still break Ian Rush’s all-time record for most goals in a single season, which saw him hit the back of the net 47 times in 65 games in 1983/84. Salah is not only prolific, he is also an unselfish creator. Working perfectly in Jürgen Klopp’s free flowing attacking trio, Salah links well with Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, creating nine league assists and two more in other competitions. Arsenal legend Thierry Henry created a record in 2002/03 when he scored 24 goals and registered 20 assists, his 44 combined still the highest total in the Premier League era. Salah’s 30 league goals and nine assists at the time of writing meant he needed just five more goals and assists combined in Liverpool’s final four matches to beat Henry’s record. In hindsight, Salah’s £36.9 million transfer fee from Roma was an absolute bargain. His summer transfer didn’t create too much fuss at the time with the deal concluded quietly and swiftly in the early stages of the transfer window. At the time, Roma needed to get the deal done in order to meet UEFA’s requirements on Financial Fair Play rules. Almost nobody envisaged Salah’ s debut season at Merseyside would be such a phenomenon, especially given his previous experience in England when he featured only 19 times for Chelsea and was deemed a failure.
