Premier League Stat Leaders: Salah sets the standard

The Premier League is currently on a hiatus due to the upcoming International break so with that in mind we’ve taken a look at some of the stand out stats on some of the most popular markets to help you with your upcoming selections once Europe's top league gets back down to business. We’re well over a quarter of the way through the 2021/22 season and there are some clear patterns emerging.
Goals
Mohamed Salah stands alone like a colossus at the top of the Premier League scoring charts. The man is simply unstoppable currently and has taken his game to a new level this campaign.

Shots
With 11 games gone in the season we see some of the same names as in the goals charts but there are a few quite surprising names in this chart. Said Benrahma, Leandro Trossard and Adam Armstrong all stand out as strikers who are shooting often but struggling to convert. (Minimum 6 appearances)

Shots on Target
Liverpool’s Mo Salah again is way out ahead on this stat. When he gets chances he usually gets them on target. He's almost a full shot per game better than his nearest challenger Cristiano Ronaldo. (Minimum 6 appearances)
