Salah has netted 10 goals in the Champions League this season as Liverpool romped towards the final in Kyiv, where they'll meet the 12-time European champions Real Madrid.
Klopp has lost his last five cup finals - including two at Liverpool - and insisted there is no place for silver medals at Liverpool's Melwood training ground.
"We recover tomorrow and then we go to Chelsea and they have again the knife between the teeth and will fight for everything". I think 80 per cent of their team played all these finals. The Egyptian now revealed how he feels about facing the Real Madrid superstar.
Steven Gerrard has claimed that Liverpool are "on the verge of something really, really good" following the Reds' Champions League semi-final victory over Roma. "All in all I thought we played quite well but could have controlled it better". Nobody tells me thank you.
"I only joined in January but I saw a lot of games before that and it was clear how much quality the team had".
The above video, provided by Liverpool's official YouTube channel, perfectly captures the passion on show both on and off the pitch, as Jordan Henderson and his teammates celebrate with the adoring 5,000-strong faithful.
Harry Kane was on target in Monday's 2-0 win over Watford to take his tally for the season to 38 and the Spurs striker still harbours hopes of chasing down the four goals he trails Liverpool's Mohamed Salah by to win a third straight Premier League golden boot.
"These fans just want this club to compete and they want to be proud of their team". Rome was the ideal setting for Liverpool's return to splendor after the Eternal City played host to the club's 1977 and 1984 European Cup triumphs.
"It was all very good natured and there were no major issues reported".
Roma president James Pallotta joined calls for the introduction of the video assistant referee (VAR) to the Champions League after the club crashed out to Liverpool in the semi-finals.
Van Dijk believes they are a strikeforce to rival Real's trio of all-time Champions League top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale, who admittedly have not been as effective this season as previous years. He scored the winning penalty in the 2016 Champions League final, and also scored in the 2014 and 2017 finals. I can not do it alone - it is collective work.
