The reigning Premier League Golden Boot winner was finding it hard to get going at the start of the new season. Mohamed Salah started the new season with a goal in the first game against West Ham, but since then, was finding it hard to regain the consistency that won him the trophy last season. He did score against Brighton in his third game, but then went through a lean phase that saw him score just one goal in 5 games.

As such, the doubters were already raising their voices and come October, Salah served a fitting reply. He returned to goal scoring form against Huddersfield and then scored again, against Cardiff. In between, he also found the net twice against Red Star in the Champions League, which means that Salah has now scored 4 goals in his last 3 games in all competitions.
While Liverpool have been doing very well so far, Klopp will be relieved that his star man is back among the goals. Mohamed Salah currently ranks 6th in the race to the Premier League Golden Boot, at the start of November.

Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
