#3 Mohamed Salah

Liverpool FC v Crystal Palace - Premier League
Liverpool FC v Crystal Palace - Premier League

Mohamed Salah was unbelievably good last season, and his string of sublime performances for the Reds resulted in him breaking the record for the most goals scored in a single 38-game season in the Premier League. He bagged 32 goals, surpassing the record held by both Luis Suarez and Cristiano Ronaldo with 31.

He hasn't been quite as brilliant this season but is still undoubtedly one of the best in the division. Even with the several goal droughts he's encountered this season, Salah has still managed to score a whopping 18 goals whilst setting up eight assists for his teammates.

Salah is a key part of the formidable attacking trio that also features Mane and Firmino, and is the main reason behind why Liverpool have had so much success recently. He has also featured in all 33 games for the Reds this season.

Yet, even with all of his contributions to the side, he can still only be in the third slot. The difference between all of these players is marginal, but these next two edge him for a reason.
