When the full-time whistle sounded in Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Southampton on 8 March, Mohamed Salah may already have been wondering which Premier League record he would set next time out against Everton.
The stats and achievements have tumbled this season for the Egyptian, who has moved up to third in the Reds’ list of all-time scorers, has scored the most away goals for Liverpool in a Premier League season and has registered a goal and assist in 11 league matches this term, a new league record.
He has also moved up to fifth in the list of all-time Premier League scorers.
But after that Southampton win, just over two months ago, Salah will have surely had his sights on three achievable - yet highly commended - set of landmarks.
There also was the assist record held jointly by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne, with Salah three off their tallies of 20.
The most achievable, surely, was the goal involvement record.
In the seven matches since his Southampton brace, Salah has managed just a single goal and assist.
It’s an unimaginable downgrade, with the 32-year-old averaging a goal involvement of 0.28 per game over the last two months, compared to over 1.5 from his first 29 games of the Premier League campaign.
Salah was on 44 goal involvements after 29 games.
Only the goal involvements record still looks feasible, something Salah will achieve if he manages two in his final two matches.
