Mohamed Salah. What more is left to say about the magical Egyptian? He scores goals - brilliant ones as his Puskas Trophy shows - and is beloved all over the world. However, after the season he had last year, Salah’s second year with Liverpool was going to be the defining period of his time in the Premier League.

His chance to prove to the world that he was far from a one season wonder but instead somebody who Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp could depend upon. His critics claim he has struggled so far, but ahead of the clash against Bournemouth the Egyptian had still managed 7 goals and five assists. Salah walked off the pitch with the match-ball in hand and level with Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the lead for the race for the Golden Boot with ten goals.

A simple hattrick to show the world and give Liverpool a boost ahead of their clash against Napoli. But the question on the minds of many is will that mark the return of the old Mo Salah? A hattrick will boost anyone, let alone a man who finds himself in scoring positions constantly.

However, with the mid-week clash against Napoli and then Manchester United next weekend, Mohamed Salah has picked the perfect time to come into form.
