Jurgen Klopp has revealed that Mohamed Salah was "angry" in the dressing room after Liverpool's 4-1 win over Everton. The Egyptian winger scored twice as the Reds completed a rout over their bitter rivals.
Liverpool boss Klopp has highlighted the extraordinary levels Salah has set himself by revealing his surprising response to scoring twice in the thrashing of Everton.
The Premier League's top goalscorer and assist maker put in a man of the match performance as the Reds ran riot at Goodison Park.
However, it appears Salah was not all smiles in the dressing room as Klopp revealed he was eyeing up the match ball and wanted to bag a hat-trick.
"He was angry after the game!" Klopp told Amazon Prime. "He wanted to score the third one. I don't take these things for granted.

"His second goal, you have to force these kind of mistakes. Mo put Coleman under pressure to win that ball and from then on it is a good chance he will score."
Klopp also revealed that this was the best his side had ever performed in an away game against the Toffees.
"We have momentum but it was by far the best performance since I've seen at Liverpool at Goodison," the German added.
