His double restored Liverpool to the top of the table, one point clear of champions Manchester City
Xherdan Shaqiri
Xherdan Shaqiri says scoring a double in the 3-1 win over Manchester United on Sunday for Liverpool was a beautiful feeling and puts him on course for his most prolific Premier League campaign.
The Swiss international midfielder, 27, came off the bench to take his tally to five goals in 13 league appearances, meaning he is already just three shy of his best previous total in the Premier League for Stoke last season.
