Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane were all on the score-sheet again in Saturday’s 4-1 Premier League thrashing of West Ham United.
That took the Reds’ total tally of goals scored this season to 103, with 66 of those provided by their attacking triumvirate.
And the fluency of Salah, Firmino and Mane’s partnership – which has helped Liverpool sit two points off second in the league and all but assure them of a place in the Champions League quarter-finals – stands them up against any other attacking unit in Europe.
Only Paris-Saint Germain trio Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani have scored more than Liverpool’s threesome, but Oxlade-Chamberlain says he wouldn’t swap the two trios.
“The three of them work really well,” he said.
“And when they’re playing the way they can, when Bobby is coming deep and the other two are running in behind, it gives you so many options to play in behind or to feet to link up with them.
“When they’re on song, there is no three you’d rather have in front of you.
“It’s frightening. There won’t be too many trios in Europe that can muster up those sorts of numbers.
“They’ve been brilliant for us in front of goal. But defensively, as well, they know their jobs.
“They work really hard and they’re good, honest lads and good to be around. They’re the type of lads that you really want to see succeed and do well.
“You want to do everything you can to help them to achieve their goals and ultimately to help the team achieve all of our goals.”
Oxlade-Chamberlain gushed with praise for front-man Firmino, whose effort against the Hammers was his 22nd of the season.
The Brazil international is enjoying his best ever campaign, with his influential form even pushing him into contention for a starting spot at the World Cup.
But as dangerous as he is in front of goal, Oxlade-Chamberlain also enthused about Firmino’s defensive contributions.
“Bobby is such a quality striker,” hailed the England midfielder. “Especially in our team, he fits in so well.
“Bobby is one of the best I’ve seen at winning the ball back from the front.
“He presses people from their blind side and they don’t know he’s coming and he wins it back.
“He’s really good at dropping in as well. He can play as a false nine where he is not always so high, he drops in, comes short for the ball and that opens up the space for Mo and Sadio to run in behind.”
