Mohamed Salah continued his incredible season as Liverpool ran riot in the first half of its Premier League encounter against Manchester City.

The Reds knew it could go 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League with three points at the Etihad after Arsenal was beaten at home by West Ham on Saturday.

The goal and assist saw Salah take his goal contributions for the season to 40, having now scored 25 times while setting his teammates up on 15 occasions.

And as Andrew Beasley points out, one certain ex-Chelsea man never managed that feat in his entire career.

Eden Hazard was a huge hit during his time at Stamford Bridge and won two Premier League titles, but he scored and assisted in the same game just 10 times throughout his entire Premier League career.

The pair have been compared over recent years, with Salah having struggled to make an impact as Hazard shone at Chelsea?
