The Egypt international scored in the 6-1 Europa League demolition of Sparta Prague to bring up his 20th goal of the season, becoming the first player in the club바카라™s history to reach that mark in seven successive campaigns.

바카라œIn seven years together with him, the one problem we never had was consistency,바카라 said Klopp after the Egypt international바카라™s first start since New Year바카라™s Day after a hamstring injury.

바카라œMo is just delivering and delivering and delivering, his desire doesn바카라™t stop, his quality is there and his desire to score doesn바카라™t stop.

바카라œHe has improved in so many aspects since he started here. That바카라™s how it is, he will not stop.

바카라œI바카라™m less surprised than maybe some others, I thought it had already happened to be honest but he was injured for a while, otherwise he would have done it in January or February.

바카라œBut great, very good, and great to have him back.바카라

Salah also provided two assists for Bobby Clark and Cody Gakpo, who scored twice, with Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szoboszlai also on target.

He completed his first 90 minutes in two months but Klopp admitted he had wanted to rest him earlier.

바카라œIt was not the plan he plays 90 minutes, the plan was to take him off when we brought on Mateusz (Musialowski) but Bobby Clark said (he felt something) and Mo is experienced enough that he recovers during the game.

바카라œI told him not to defend any more 바카라“ I never told a player that before.바카라

Liverpool progressed to the quarter-finals 11-2 on aggregate after an early blitz ruled out any remote hopes of a comeback from the Czech champions.

바카라œThe boys started the game incredibly well and 4-0 up in 14 minutes is really strange. From then on it became a strange game because how can you now stay greedy?바카라 said Klopp.

Sparta boss Brian Priske accepted his side had been totally outclassed.

바카라œBig respect to Liverpool how they played these two legs, the level from Sparta to Liverpool is massive. It is a completely different level,바카라 he said.

바카라œWe never faced something like this. Liverpool is a Champions League team and they should be playing in the Champions League.바카라
