    Incredible stats show Mo Salah is king of Old Trafford as Liverpool star puts yet more misery in to Man Utd

    NO-ONE loves a trip to the Theatre more than Mo Salah.

    But sadly for Manchester United he’s a bigger haunter of Dreams than Freddie Krueger.

    The Liverpool striker added to his astonishing stats at Old Trafford by rounding off Sunday’s 3-0 rampage with a swaggering sidefoot.

    The 32-year-old has now scored in each of his last seven visits to the Theatre of Dreams .

    And just like evil Krueger in the Nightmare on Elm Street horror movies, he keeps coming back for more when you might expect he is finished.

    But Salah ‘s seven ‘hell for United is rivalled by his other jaw-dropping facts ‘n figures at Old Trafford.

    The Egyptian even sits joint fifth in a list of ALL scorers in all competitions at the famous ground since January 24 2021.

    United academy product Marcus Rashford , on 31, and 29-goal Bruno Fernandes are way out in front over that period.

    But the only other men Salah trails are legend-of-legends Cristiano Ronaldo , who has 17, and Scott McTominay , with 13.

    Salah sits on 10 alongside Anthony Martial – a feat that highlights his ruthless record at Liverpool’s biggest rivals but also United’s problems in attack.

    Fans are crowning the former Roma star the king of Old Trafford.

    And even one United supporter posted: “He owns us.”

    Salah shines when facing the Red Devils at Anfield too – meaning he’s been involved in more goals against United in the Prem than any other player , with 11 strikes and six assists in all.

    So he makes as well as takes goals – including supplying both for Luis Diaz in the first half of his weekend wonder show.

    That leaves another intriguing record on the horizon for Salah this season, having already notched 160 goals and 72 assists in 266 top-flight games since arriving at Anfield in 2017.

    He’s risen to second in the all-time Prem table for the number of times he’s scored and assisted in the same match.

    United icon Wayne Rooney did it 36 times, with Salah on 33, one clear of Thierry Henry .

    If he does pass Rooney, what a fitting way to bow out of Liverpool next summer – something he admitted on Sunday he might do.

    Taking goals, making history, staking a claim for GOAT status – all the world’s a stage for such a masterly performer, even one who is never more at home than when he’s away at the Theatre of Dreams.
