Luis Diaz's Liverpool season can essentially be split into two halves.
The first period centres around an electric winger who was the Reds' best player in the first couple of months of the Premier League campaign. While Jurgen Klopp's side struggled to put behind them the looming spectre of the previous 63-game term, Diaz was one of few whose efforts did not drop.
A wonderful solo effort at home to Crystal Palace in August saved the 10-man Liverpool from an early Anfield defeat before he contributed two goals in a 9-0 battering of Bournemouth later that month. A superb strike was little more than a consolation in a 4-1 defeat at Napoli in early September as he registered five goals in the opening month of the term.
