DOMINIK SZOBOSZLAI has given an insight into how the Liverpool team are dealing with Mohamed Salah's rumoured move to Saudi Arabia.

The staggering numbers on offer has led Jurgen Klopp to admit the Premier League is powerless to stop its best players from leaving.
But Liverpool have drawn a line in the sand on Salah, with the club unable to bring in a replacement for him now the British transfer window has slammed shut.
Speaking about the game, Szoboszlai said: "I am really happy to score my first goal and hope there will be even more to come.
"In the first home game [against Bournemouth] we did not start so well and also at Newcastle, we did not start so well. So after a team meeting, we were told to start well and finish with 11 men. So we scored a quick goal and that was good. Hopefully, everyone will stay healthy.
"As a midfielder, we need time. We do not know each other so when the games come we will be even better and better."
