Liverpool legend John Arne Riise has praised Mohamed Salah for his outstanding goalscoring form in the English Premier League.

The 25-year-old joined the Reds in a club-record deal from Roma in June and continued with his brilliant run in front of goal after scoring a brace to help Jurgen Klopp ease past Southampton 3-0.

Salah’s first and second goals at Anfield on Saturday, shattered Robbie Fowler’s record of eight goals in his first 12 Premier League games for Reds.

The former Chelsea and Basel forward has now scored nine goals in 12 games for the Merseyside club this campaign, to lead the English top-flight goalscorers' chart.
