Jurgen Klopp makes honest Erling Haaland admission when addressing Mohamed Salah's Liverpool form

Jurgen Klopp is backing Mohamed Salah to rediscover his best form but says comparisons with Erling Haaland are currently futile.

Salah has scored five Liverpool goals across all competitions dating back to the Community Shield in late July but the Egyptian has generally struggled to get back to the sort of levels he was last term when he registered 31 goals for Klopp's team.

Haaland brought up his 20th of the campaign for Manchester City in Saturday's 4-0 win over Southampton and his 15 Premier League goals mean the Norwegian is now just seven away from equalling the total of Salah and Tottenham's Hueng-min Son last season when they shared the Golden Boot.
