The Egyptian international produced another virtuoso performance away at Man United with two assists and a goal as Arne Slot's side won 3-0 at Old Trafford.

Victory on the road in Manchester ensures Liverpool head into the September international break with a 100% winning record from their first three games this season.

It was another superb showing for Salah, as he continues to be a scourge of United, with his goal registering as an 18th goal involvement (EPL goal or assist against United) as a Liverpool player.

That is the main eye-catching record, but Liverpool fans will also be delighted by some of the tighter numbers associated with Salah's incredible run against their old foes.

Salah has now scored seven goals in seven consecutive games against United and he becomes the highest scoring visiting Premier League player at Old Trafford.

He also offered a cryptic update on his future at Liverpool, as he enters the final year of his Liverpool contract, with talks over an extension paused.
