Liverpool stormed to a 4-1 victory over West Ham at Anfield – and here we talk about the new milestones.
Liverpool pass 100 goals and move up to second:
Liverpool may have had a 10-day break since thrashing Porto 5-0 in the Champions League but picked up where they left off with a comprehensive, comfortable victory over West Ham to move up to second in the Premier League table.
The no-look finish from Firmino underlined the confidence flowing through Jurgen Klopp’s side right now and they’re on to 103 goals scored in all competitions this season which broken various records and Reds still have 10 league games to go.
Salah equalling Luis Suarez’s record:
There were concerns when Philippe Coutinho packed his bags for Barcelona about how this Liverpool team would respond to his departure. But while the Fab Four may have split up, the Thrilling Three of Salah, Mane and Firmino have powered on and now form one of the most fearsome attacking trios in Europe.
It’s Salah who has been the attack’s spearhead scoring 31 goals in all competitions equalling Luis Suarez’s efforts in memorable 2013/14 season. It doesn’t look the Egyptian is going to slow down any time soon.
Firmino equalling his personal record:
The Brazilian scored his 22nd goal of the season and has levelled his efforts he held with Hoffenhiem in 2012/13.
Roberto Firmino now has 13 Premier League goals this season.
Mo surpassing Fowler’s record:
Meanwhile, Mohamed Salah is the first player to score 20 left-footed goals in a Premier League season.
Moyes’ Anfield misery continues:
David Moyes’ winless record at Anfield (D7 L8) now stretches to 15 games as manager of Everton, Manchester United, Sunderland and West Ham.
