Liverpool's attacking displays have left us all purring this season and the Reds' win over Swansea yesterday saw them break an all-time Premier League record.

Brendan Rodgers' men scored three times before the break, taking their first-half tally to 46 for this season in one of the 'stats of the weekend', provided by OPTA.

Daniel Sturridge continued his sensational form against the Swans with two goals and became only the second player in top flight history to score in eight consecutive games.

However, the England striker still has two games to go before he reaches Ruud van Nistelrooy's record, having bagged in 10 matches on the bounce in 2003.

Meanwhile, Sturridge's international colleague Wayne Rooney became only the second Premier League player to score 10 or more goals, in 10 successive seasons.

The 28-year-old celebrated his new £300k-a-week contract with the second goal against Crystal Palace on Saturday, joining Frank Lampard on the elite list.

Somewhat of a concern for Red Devils' supporters will be the fact David Moyes is yet to use two identical starting line-ups, in his 40 games in charge so far.

He might remember Claudio Ranieri adopting a certain nickname during his Chelsea days for a similar selection style.

Speaking of the Blues, the 'small horses' from the Bridge are now on the longest unbeaten run in the top flight - having gone 12 games without tasting defeat.
