Mohamed Salah tops two Premier League charts as Liverpool trio lead the way

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah currently leads the way in the Premier League's player stats following Saturday's victory over Southampton at Anfield.

The Egyptian is the top goalscorer with 11 goals - and he's also top of the assists chart with eight so far this season.

He wasn't on the scoresheet himself in the 4-0 win over Ralph Hasenhuttl's side on Saturday afternoon, but he assisted Diogo Jota's second goal of the game.

So far this term the 29-year-old's longest run without a goal is two games, where he failed to score against both Brighton and West Ham before the last international break.

What's more impressive is the current top three goalscorers in the league are all Liverpool players.

Salah, of course, leads the way while Sadio Mane and Jota are just behind with seven.

Leicester City's Jamie Vardy is also close to the top with seven and West Ham's Michail Antonio is just behind on six.

Salah's incredible form also sees him top of the charts for assists and Trent Alexander-Arnold is close behind on seven, along with Manchester United's Paul Pogba.

Salah will have one eye on claiming the golden boot for the third time in his Liverpool career at the end of the season.

He was awarded the honour after his first season at Anfield in 2017/18 and again the following campaign after he finished it level on goals with Mane and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
