Having ruled out a serious injury to Mohamed Salah, who is currently representing Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations, the Reds can rest assured that their player will soon be able to return to action, and it is crucial that the Pharaoh has the continuity of play that will allow him to challenge for the African title and be Liverpool's best player this season.

Although the Egyptian's objective is to win as many titles as possible with the Merseyside side, he knows that his personal goal is still to be recognized as the highest scorer not only in the club's history, but also in the league, with Alan Shearer becoming the man to beat, as his 260 goals make him the biggest goal scorer in the Premier League.

While Shearer dominates the goal scoring parameter, in the assists section the absolute reference in the English league is the former Manchester United player, Ryan Giggs, a Welsh native who managed 162 assists during his career, a figure that seems very far away for almost any player, except for Trent Alexander Arnold who, with his 57 assists, is trying to beat it.

Despite looking far away and for some even impossible for TAA to break this record, the Reds player could increase those numbers if they continue with the level shown throughout this campaign, which could even influence his incursion into the midfield, an area he has indirectly requested to occupy through several interviews.

Alexander Arnold could surpass Ryan Giggs

Although no one demerits the work of the Wales player, it is true that his constant assists were due to his position from the midfield, being more complicated for Alexander Arnold who has to come from far back to try to get some contributions during the matches. If Klopp can give TAA his change to the fear sector, the disadvantage will disappear and the Reds number 66 will be able to work to increase those numbers, which are not bad at all for a defender who has been constantly surrounded by great offensive figures.
