Only Mohamed Salah. It's been a common theme to see those three words accompany any achievement in the Premier League across the last decade.
Such has been the standard that Salah has set in his nine years atLiverpool, almost any goal and assist milestone has been accompanied by the caveat that 'only Mohamed Salah' has more.
Salah hasannounced that he will leave Liverpool at the end of the season as the curtain comes down on the Anfield career of an all-time great.
Here are some special records that the Egyptian King has set.
Salah set a new milestone earlier this season after recording his 277th goal involvement for Liverpool in thePremier League with an assist for Hugo Ekitike against Brighton. He surpassed Wayne Rooney, who recorded 276 goals and assists for Manchester United.
Salah's role in Liverpool's 2024-25 title win saw him named PFA Player of the Year for a third time.
He's the only player in history to have been voted the league's finest on three occasions by his fellow players, leaving behind a group of two-time winners that includes Mark Hughes, Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Kevin De Bruyne.
Salah led the league for goals in 2024-25 to claim a fourth Premier League Golden Boot. It's a joint record in the Premier League era, shared with former Arsenal forward Thierry Henry.
Salah did leave Henry behind to become the Premier League's highest-scoring overseas star. His current 191-goal haul has him fourth overall, and ahead of Sergio Aguero (184) and Henry (175) for foreign footballers.
A record that Salah claimed several seasons ago, the Egyptian's left foot is the deadliest the league has seen. He moved past the previous record, held by Robbie Fowler, back in 2023.
Salah set a new record when he registered 47 goal involvements (29 goals, 18 assists) in the 2024-25 campaign.
In the process, Salah surpassed the previous 38-game record for goal involvements of 44, shared by Thierry Henry (2002-03) and Erling Haaland (2022-23).
Salah is the only player in Premier League history to have won the Premier League's Player of the Season, Golden Boot and Playmaker Awards.
He completed a hat-trick of all three awards in 2024-25 during a clean sweep of individual honours.
Salah scored the fastest hat-trick inChampions League history when he netted three times against Rangers in October 2022.
Incredibly, Salah came on as a substitute before sinking the Scottish side with a treble timed at six minutes and 12 seconds.
No player has made more Champions League appearances for Liverpool than Salah, who surpassed Jamie Carragher's 80-game record in a recent fixture against Galatasaray.
Salah is now on 82 appearances ahead of next month's quarter-final clash with PSG.
Salah has struck more goals in European competition for Liverpool than any other player (53).
The Egyptian recently became the first African player to reach 50 Champions League goals, doing so during the 4-0 win over Galatasaray.
Didier Drogba (44) and Samuel Eto'o are the nearest continental peers to his haul.
Salah remains the only opposition player to have scored a Premier League hat-trick at Old Trafford, having scored three times during a famous 5-0 win for Liverpool in 2021.
There isn't a player who comes close to Salah for Premier League goals since his Liverpool debut. He's scored 189 league goals for the Reds, leaving Harry Kane (135), Son Heung-min (109) and Erling Haaland (107) in the rear-view mirror.
