Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain left the talent graveyard at Arsenal and took a £60,000 pay-cut to join Liverpool… but he's off to a flying start having already beaten his best Premier League goals tally

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's Premier League scoring totals in his six seasons at Arsenal tell the story of a player whose attacking potential was wasted.

Two goals in 2011-12, one in 2012-13, two in 2013-14, one in 2014-15, one in 2015-16 and two in 2016-17. Nine in total in the space of six years under Arsene Wenger.

In 20 games with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool, the Ox has now got three goals – more than he managed in any of those seasons at Arsenal.
