Mohamed Salah, in terms of his records this season, hasn't been too bad at all. He's just gone from what he was last season back to being human again. And still, he is contributing with maximum work ethic for Jurgen Klopp.

The talk of the town at Merseyside is Sadio Mane, who just cannot stop scoring at the moment. But Salah's second leg performance against Bayern Munich was simply spectacular.

He constantly ran up and down the flank, offered defensive stability for starters and was very safe in possession. The Egyptian's movement off the ball, the way he drifted in field time and time again and interchanged passes with the midfielders was a work of art.

We very often see him among the goals, but Salah was Liverpool's creator-in-chief in midweek. He created ample chances and with the outside of his boot, registered an assist for the third goal as well.
