Klopp’s Request for Salah
By news-admin
DBasia.news – Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp asked Mohamed Salah to improve. However, Klopp felt satisfied by Salah’s performance against Crystal Palace.
Liverpool got the positive result after defeating Crystal Palace 2-0 on the second week of 2018-2019 Premier League at Selhurst Park, Monday (21/8). In that match, Mo Salah didn’t score any goal.
Though not scoring any goal, Mo Salah had the role in two The Reds’ goals. In the first goal by James Milner in the white dot, Mo Salah was the one fouled by Mamadou Sakho in the penalty box.
Meanwhile, for the second goal, Salah had a role to give a proper passing to Sadio Mane.
“There’s nothing to say about individual performances, but Mo Salah can play much better, that’s obvious,” Klopp said reported by Soccerway.
“Yet he was decisively involved in both goals, that’s two assists pretty much, so I am fine with that. We can play much better as a team, that means immediately he is involved more, and that’s all good,” the manager continued.
“But it was not a brilliant football game from us. We won it because we scored in two very decisive moments. That’s good, a big step for us. Everyone who watches us knows if we are not brilliant we usually lose. Today we were not brilliant but we still won.”
The additional three points made Liverpool finished in the sixth rank of the temporary standing with six points in total. While Manchester City remained at the top with better goal productivity.
