Twitter lauds Salah as he breaks the Premier League goal-scoring record

Liverpool v Brighton and Hove Albion - Premier League — Record breaker!

Arguably the best signing of the season, Mohamed Salah has single-handedly taken Liverpool to another level.

Ahead of the game, he had 31 goals to his name in the Premier League equalling the record held by Alan Shearer, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Suarez.

However, he had failed to score in his last two games and was hell-bent on finding the back of the net today.

He combined well with Solanke in the box in the 26th minute and expertly finished it off, thereby becoming the first player to score 32 goals in a 38-game Premier League season.

Twitter was full of praise for the Egyptian:

To put @MoSalah goalscoring into perspective, he's broken the record previously held by Alan Shearer, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Suarez. Also scored more in season than Thierry Henry, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Robin van Persie Fernando Torres and Didier Drogba. Some company that #LFC

Genuinely incredible that Salah broke Ronaldo’s PL goalscoring record yet he’s still not better than Ronaldo was in the PL.
