Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, explained why Mohamed Salah didn’t start in their Champions League game against Benfica.
Salah is having a sensational season for Liverpool so far, scoring 28 goals and providing 10 assists in 38 games across all competitions.
However, he has been in a poor form recently, having failed to score from open play since mid-February.
“The reason for Mo not starting is easy. It was about, yes he played City but after that we hopefully have 12 games. That’s why when we have an opportunity, we change, “Klopp said in a press conference.
“That’s all. Even if Mo had scored four goals in the last game, he wouldn’t have started yesterday. That’s how it is. Nothing to do with anything, there’s no story to make of it. It’s just a necessity.
