Liverpool boss, Klopp had no worries over his star man, however, playing down any thoughts that Salah was unhappy despite the goals scored. .
"He is completely fine," the German said in his post-match press conference. "Really. If he is not celebrating, I don't know if he is, maybe a bit annoyed about getting asked about it [his scoring record].
"We didn't speak about it, to be honest. You ask him all the time and then I go to him and say, 'How do you feel because you haven't scored as often?' – I am not crazy! It is all good.
"I saw him celebrating but I couldn't see his face from that distance. I know he is fine – and I saw his face when I took him off. That was different."
Salah has scored in both games for Liverpool since the international break, having netted the only strike of the game at the weekend against Huddersfield, having not scored since a 3-0 win over Southampton in September prior to the break.
