Egyptian King's tasty goal and assist

- CHRIS MCKENNA

MO SALAH doesn’t even seem to have hit top gear yet – but he continues to be the driving force in this Liverpool side.

It’s only just hit October and he’s scored six goals and created five.

Nobody has reached similar tallies in both so quickly since John Barnes netted five with five assists in 1989-90.

What should be scary for the Reds’ rivals is that the ‘Egyptian King’ hasn’t even hit full throttle yet.

The stats don’t suggest it but those who go to Anfield regularly will tell you that Salah isn’t quite firing on all cylinders. What a terrifying thought for Premier League and European defences.

Salah, 32, is certainly putting himself in a stronger position in terms of contract talks as every week goes by as Liverpool cruised past Bologna to continue their stunning start to the season.
