Mo Salah is Klopp's best player in the team, but even the manager would agree that the Egyptian was not in the best of form at the start of the season. With the kind of performances he put in the previous campaign, the bar was raised for Salah to deliver again. However, the Premier League, being one of the toughest in the world, it's not easy to repeat the same performance in back-to-back seasons.

Salah got criticised for his lack of goals and the pressure mounted on him to perform. However, once he started putting the ball at the back of the net, it was not looking back for the Egyptian. Salah maintained his goalscoring streak with eight goals in all competitions so far in this campaign.
His goal was an example of lightning counter-attack which initiated from a Fulham free kick. Liverpool took advantage of Salah's pace to set him through, and the Egyptian made no mistake to put the ball past the Fulham goalkeeper.

A sports enthusiast and an avid follower of football.
Since childhood I was encouraged to play cricket and in no time it became a hobby. Gradually I found interest in other sports also.
Football is in my blood and I love the electrifying ambiance that surrounds it. I often watch the pre and post match analysis of a match and try to learn how to analyze a football game.
The thing that intrigues me the most is that there are so many things happening behind the scenes that are oblivious to our naked eyes. The technological advancements that has been made are phenomenal.
I like analyzing a game from a statistical point of view. Being a data guy myself , I am firm believer of providing insights through facts and data. Though a game is always unpredictable , analyzing it from different dimensions can provide some very interesting conclusions.
