#4 Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

Mohamed Salah lit up the Premier League and Champions League during his debut season with Liverpool by outscoring some of the world's best. He bagged 44 goals in all competitions, including 10 Champions League goals.

Although, the Liverpool forward was not able to scale the same heights last season - scoring 28 goals in all competitions. The Egyptian, who lifted his second consecutive Premier League Golden Boot, found the back of the net on five occasions in the European tournament, counting the important strikes against Napoli and the spot-kick in the final.

The attacker went through a goal drought between January and March, which limited his goal tally last season. But, he has shown no signs of slowing down - bagging three goals in the opening four Premier League games this season.

Since Jurgen Klopp relies on creativity from Roberto Firmino and the full-backs, the Liverpool forward is rewarded with total freedom to roam in the offensive areas of the pitch and execute his work to the fullest in the final third. Should he reach the levels expected from him, Salah can destroy opponents on his own.
