'Do we need blood?' - Klopp defends Salah over dive claims
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has defended Mohamed Salah over claims the Reds forward is a diver.
Arsenal were left furious with Salah when he went down under a challenge from Sokratis Papastathopoulos to win a penalty at Anfield on Saturday.
Salah stepped up to score the spot-kick but was confronted by Sokratis as the players entered the tunnel at half-time, with Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk stepping in to defend his team-mate.
