'Absolutely crazy numbers!' - Klopp hails Salah's record & says competition for goals with Mane is 'healthy'

Jurgen Klopp insists star duo Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah have a "healthy competition" for goals at Liverpool, praising the latter's "absolutely crazy" numbers.

Speaking at a press conference to preview his side's Premier League clash with Burnley, the Reds boss dismissed suggestions that there is any kind of discord between his forwards.

In the return fixture at Turf Moor back in September, Mane had reacted angrily after Salah opted to shoot for goal instead of passing to his unmarked team-mate.
