Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah claims Jurgen Klopp's decision to swap his position is behind his prolific form

Liverpool's top scorer Mohamed Salah has credited manager Jurgen Klopp's tactics for his prolific form, saying a change in his playing position has helped him score more goals.

Salah has netted 30 goals in 36 matches across all competitions in his debut season at Liverpool, and is the league's second highest goalscorer with 22 goals to his name, one fewer than Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane.

'With the boss here, I play a little bit closer to the goal, more so than at any other club or more than any of my other coaches have asked me to,' Salah told Liverpool's official matchday programme.
