Liverpool boss Klopp happy with goalscoring Salah debut: But he needs to...

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was pleased with Mohamed Salah's goalscoring debut in their 3-3 draw with Watford.

However, Klopp admits he wants more from the Egyptian.

He said, "He was involved in the penalty, scoring a goal, even though it was for sure not the most difficult goal of his life because it was a perfect ball from Dejan, fantastic control from Roberto, a sensational chip, and then he's there to finish the situation, which is nice.

"In the beginning everyone could see he struggled a bit against Holebas, a really strong man, he was a little bit too much on the wing, things like this. We spoke about it at half-time and second half was much better.

"We need offence in behind with the speed, not all the time but if we can do it in another space then it's easier for us to play football there. So yes, I am fine with his contribution."
