Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says Mohamed Salah would be record breaker if not for him!

Salahks brace in victory over Crystal Palace took his tally to 50 Premier League goals in just 72 appearances.

Klopp remarked: "Exceptional - an exceptional achievement from a world-class player, that's how it is. I think he made a few steps in the last couple of months in the right direction, so it's really, really an outstanding number.

"I heard the names of the other players who did it a bit quicker: Alan Shearer, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Andy Cole - yeah, good strikers as well! Maybe he would've scored more earlier if I wouldn't have played him that often on the right wing, so [that's] my fault! But no, it's not bad and it helped us a lot and the boys know that.

"I think it's a typical win-win situation: he benefits from the style of play with the other boys and the boys benefit, of course, with his scoring desire, so that's cool."
