Mad_Cyril Would imagine the sight of Alex Ferguson makes him burst into tears to this day

To be fair, I’d say it does the same to United fans

    Mad_Cyril in the immortal words of Dickson and Paige, I know him so well.

                All the records that Mohamed Salah set vs Manchester City today:

                ◉ Mo Salah is the first player in Premier League history to register 40+ goal involvements in TWO different seasons.

                ◉ Mo Salah is the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to be directly involved in 50 goals across all competitions in 2024/25. 

                ◉ Mo Salah has now scored AND assisted in 11 Premier League games this season, the most by a player in a single season in one of Europe’s big five leagues since Lionel Messi for Barcelona in 2014/15 (11). 

                ◉ Mo Salah has provided more assists in 2024/25 than any other Liverpool player has in a single Premier League campaign (16).

                ◉ Mo Salah is the first player in Premier League history to score AND assist in both games against the reigning champions in a season.

                ◉ Mo Salah is the first player to score 25+ goals and register 15+ assists in a Premier League season.

                Cap doffed.

                    City were shite, but glad that we looked a bit more organised.

                      Amps roll on the toon, should be another goal fest

                          Echo what a fantastic player.

                          Another fine achievement yesterday:

                          Trent is the first player to be dribbled past 11 times in a single PL match since the 2015/16 season.

                          So well done Trent too

                                alistair Yep. Doku just cut back and passed it back to Ederson 11 times.

                                    SM001 talking full backs, what about AWB’s renaissance at West Ham. He carries real attacking threat too now. Come on big time since leaving United.

                                        alistair true, didn’t impact the result, but don’t you think that’s a worrying stat? Against a decent team in the CL that could be costing us a lot more than against an average City side.

                                            We did well to get rid of him.

                                              RichM That’s Trent. I’d rather celebrate what he can do while we still have him

                                                RichM Alexander-Arnold has always been this dodgy, it’s just no-one noticed when he was pinging 60 yard diagonal balls onto Firmino’s big toe as casually and accurately as me flicking a spoonful of cheese at Smallman’s head if I ever saw him in a restaurant.

                                                  Trent Alexander OhNOnold.
