That Electric Attack

As much as it may pain some of us to admit it, Liverpool’s attack was an absolute force of nature during the 2017/2018 season – and the goals don’t look like drying up any time soon!

In the Premier League alone, last year saw Mo Salah bag 32 goals in 36 games, Roberto Firmino 13 in 35 games, and Sadio Mane 10 goals in 29 games. To put into perspective just how impressive that is, the collective 55 goals by the trio last season was more goals than 14 other Premier League teams scored in total.

With the 2018/2019 campaign now underway, the Anfield outfit have only strengthened their attacking options further by bringing in the brilliant-but-erratic Xherdan Shaqiri from Stoke City, while the vision and quick distribution of Naby Keita – signed this summer from Red Bull Leipzig – will provide Liverpool’s forward line with plenty of chances to find the back of the net.

Liverpool’s attacking options are enough to scare any defence in world football, and the sheer power, pace, and unrelenting work rate of the likes of Salah, Made, and Firmino could ultimately play a huge part in bringing the Premier League trophy to Anfield for the first time in Liverpool’s history.
