Mohamed Salah makes 'tough' Liverpool admission and outlines Champions League aim

Mohamed Salah hopes that better times are ahead after the international break with the Champions League providing Liverpool with a platform to save their season.

A dramatic dip in form following the turn of the calendar year has seen Jurgen Klopp’s defending Premier League champions suffer a club record six consecutive home defeats after previously going 68 matches unbeaten at Anfield in the competition.

Liverpool are currently 25 points behind leaders Manchester City and sit seventh in the table.

But the side won their last game 1-0 at Wolverhampton Wanderers and have progressed to the last eight in Europe where they have been paired with 13-times winners Real Madrid in a repeat of the 2018 final.

Salah, who was accepting his award for Liverpool's Standard Chartered Men's Player of the Month for February, told the club’s website : “It's a nice feeling to be winning it again.

“It's a good feeling and I'm happy about our last results, so hopefully we can just keep winning.

“It's tough for all of us because of the situation we have been through and our position in the Premier League, but I believe it's going to be better.

"In the Champions League we are doing good.

“We're going to give our 100% to win the next few games and hopefully we can do that and do good also in the Champions League.”
