Mohamed Salah was the star of the show for Liverpool, who came from behind to win again, setting up three goals.
The Reds trailed Wolves at halftime, but a superb second half performance vaults them to the top of the Premier League after five games.
Despite the fact that results might fluctuate, Liverpool has risen to the top of the table for the first time this season, with 13 points from a possible 15.
Officially, Salah was only granted two assists since Harvey Elliott’s shot on goal resulted in an own goal, thus he didn’t get the final touch.
Salah was a joy to watch once Jurgen Klopp made his changes after halfway, no matter how aggravating it was.
Here are all the numbers that characterize his excellent creative performance, which was awarded an 8.3/10…
According to the statistics, Mohamed Salah’s performance against the Wolves was the MOTM.
Salah was in a creative mode against Wolves, and while he had nothing to work with in terms of offensive runs in the first half, movement became a non-issue once Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez entered the game.
All of the statistics are available on WhoScored.
74% pass accuracy: The Egyptian rarely registers an impressive pass rate since, like other Premier League forwards, his job is to take as many risks as possible. This is illustrated by the number of important passes he made…
Five crucial passes and two assists: This is an excellent creative metric that shows what Salah is capable of when given the right assistance. As a winger, he typically receives the ball far from goal, and in the first half, Dominik Szoboszlai appeared to be the only player close enough to link play with.
He now has the joint-most assists (4) in the Premier League, thanks to his two (should be three) assists this season.
Salah was clearly in a creative mood against Wolves, but he didn’t create much of his own goal threat. He only had one shot on goal whole night, but given how the game began, he should be commended for his ability to create for others.
Salah has two goals and four assists in five Premier League games this season. His fitness and offensive abilities will be critical if the Reds are to keep their title hopes alive.
