#4 Premier League Player of the Month domination

As the name suggests, the Premier League Player of the Month is awarded to the best player in the league in a particular month. The award was first presented to Jurgen Klinsmann in August 1994 and has never seen a player win it more than twice in a single season in the past 24 years until Salah arrived.

The Egyptian became the first player in Premier League history to win the famous award thrice in a single season. He won it for last November and for February and March this year, creating another piece of history for himself. The achievement acquires more significance when one considers the supreme talents that have graced the league over the decades yet, none have won it thrice in a single season.

Now, Salah is already on his way to beat the record for most Player of the Month awards in one's career of six, held jointly by Tottenham's Harry Kane and Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard.


#4 Left-foot fury

Left-footed footballers are a rare commodity and bring a different element to their teams. The Premier League has seen several left-footed goalscorers but none have scored more than Salah in a single season.

The wide forward has 22 goals using his left foot from his total of 29, already three more than Robbie Fowler, who scored 19 left-footed goals for Liverpool in the 1994/95 season. Behind Fowler is former Arsenal and Manchester United star, Robin van Persie, who scored 18 and 17 goals with his left peg in 2012./13 and 2011/12 respectively.

Salah broke the record back in February and can comfortably establish a healthy lead with five more games to go.
