Liverpool's front three of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah remain the most fearsome trio for any Premier League defence. And when these three gifted athletes combine, there is bound to be only one answer. Goals, goals and more goals.

Watford did their bit to keep Mane and Firmino quiet in front of goal (Mane did have a goal correctly ruled out for offside by VAR). But that only left a gap for Salah to the damage and turn the game on its head. The Egyptian hasn't hit the dizzying heights of his fabulous campaign last time out but this was a reminder that you can count him off at your own peril.

Salah scored twice at both ends of the half to give Liverpool an uninspiring victory and three points to lead their march on their first Premier League title in 30 years.
