Liverpool 3-0 AFC Bournemouth: 5 Hits and Flops | Premier League 2018-19

#1 Hit: Mohamed Salah

Salah was a constant threat as usual, netting his 20th goal of the campaign across all competitions

Salah returns with another Man of the Match display! After disappointing individual outings against Leicester and West Ham, Salah returned to the type of form we've been used to seeing over the past 18 months - a forward hungry for goals and eager to create chances aplenty, causing havoc for opposition defenders to deal with.

He scored the hosts' third goal to cap off a brilliant counter-attacking move. Keita, Mane and Roberto Firmino were all involved before the Brazilian teed him up with a deft back-heel flick into his path. Making no mistake to slot into the bottom corner, it means he's now netted 20 goals this season across all competitions. Not bad.

It was a composed finish and the type that we tend to gloss over, particularly as Liverpool's attacking trident receives praise aplenty for their deadly creative threat. Firmino and Mane both squandered promising opportunities, which emphasized just how difficult it can be to score those chances.

Salah worked hard throughout, whether that be creating chances for teammates or looking to convert them himself. At times this season, we've seen him be more selfish to the detriment of his teammates - that wasn't the case this time around. Eventually getting his goal, he worked tirelessly to help set the precedent, pressing Bournemouth defenders into mistakes in possession from the front and alleviating pressure on other teammates by doing so.

He forced Boruc into an excellent save, tipping his half-volley over the crossbar in the first-half after some impressive improvisation, while the stats proved he's hungry to score more goals too: two dribbles, three key passes and seven shots registered!
