41 & Counting: How Mohamed Salah Compares to Liverpool's All-Time Top Single Season Goalscorers

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah didn't have the best of games as the Red drew 2-2 against bottom club West Brom in the Premier League on Saturday, but he still scored his 41st goal of the season, a delicate chipped finish, and capped off the weekend by winning the PFA Players' Player of the Year, becoming only the second African recipient of the prestigious accolade.

A week earlier, Salah had scored his 40th goal of the season as Liverpool comfortably beat Bournemouth 3-0 at Anfield. In doing so, he became the first Liverpool player in 31 years to reach that huge milestone in a single season, matching Ian Rush's 40-goal tally from 1986/87.
