Liverpool boss Klopp: Salah form now a problem

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits Mohamed Salah's goalscoring issues have become a problem.

Klopp was speaking ahead of today's clash with Fulham.

He stated: "We always had that in the past, was it Sadio, was it Bobby, was it Mo, one of them always had these spells, but then the other guys stepped in and nobody spoke about it really.

"That's a little bit the problem at the moment - nobody is scoring. What is the problem if Mo Salah has two or three weeks after coming from injury where he is not exactly (at his best)? If he had never been in these moments then he would have scored 40 goals each season.

"That's not the problem. But getting through this as a team or as a player is not that big of an issue as long as you win games, but we didn't do that last week and that is really bad for us. Usually you share these kind of things, but all of the boys missed their chances. That brought us the results we had."
