#3 Liverpool are much more than Mohamed Salah
Liverpool's talisman and top-scorer for the campaign, Mohamed Salah, failed to score against Southampton. However, The Reds had other players who stepped up to do the job up front.
Salah did not manage a single shot on target in the game, but he did bag an assist. In the process, he became the third-quickest player to rack up 150 Premier League goal contributions.
Jota was impressive in the final third, and is looking sharp in front of goal. Meanwhile, Alcantara has also gained some confidence and is looking comfortable with his role under Jurgen Klopp.
The full-back duo of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson picked up an assist apiece. That suggests Liverpool aren't over-reliant on Salah for their goals, which augurs well for their title hopes.
#2 Ibrahima Konate has a nervy outing against Southampton
Ibrahima Konate has great potential to be a success at Liverpool lineup. His physical attributes allow him to be at ease in the centre-back position, but he needs to play better under pressure.
There were some positives for him to take from the game. Konate won more aerial duels (seven) than any player on the pitch. He also led Liverpool players in terms of interceptions (three).
However, there were some instances where his reading of the game and decisiveness looked a bit shoddy. He lost possession nine times in the game. That could be due to Konate being low on confidence, as he has only been intermittently used by Klopp this season. With more game time, Ibrahima Konate's performances will likely improve.
#1 Liverpool are scoring goals at a scorching pace
Liverpool have scored goals galore (39) in the Premier League this season. Only Bayern Munich (42) have scored more league goals than The Reds across Europe's top five leagues this campaign.
Klopp's men have scored at least twice in 17 games across all competitions, becoming the first English team to do so since Sunderland in 1927. The Reds have scored nine more times than league leaders Chelsea. It's the most Liverpool have scored at this stage of a league campaign (13 games).
If they continue their scorching scoring ways, The Reds could achieve many more landmarks this season. Manchester City's record of 106 goals in the 2017-18 campaign could be achievable too.
