Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has defended his star man Mohamed Salah over allegations of diving in recent games.

Salah was accused of going down far too easily in the Reds' 4-3 win over Crystal Palace almost a fortnight ago.
The referee wasn't awarded this time, but Salah has been awarded some that were controversial.
"This is the first situation where he went down without (a penalty) and you speak about all the other situations as well?" Klopp said.
"The other situations there is nothing to talk about - it is a penalty, done. If this is the first then why do we talk about?

"There are other situations, much more obvious situations, that we don't talk about and nobody is talking about because it's not (Manchester) City, it's not (Manchester) United, it's not Liverpool, it's not Arsenal, or it's not Chelsea.
"All the others can do it from time to time and nobody really talks about it. It's all fine.
"All the penalties against him (Salah) were penalties but people handle it like it was halfway diving - it was not. We don't need blood for a foul in football. That's all I will say about it. No, I didn't speak to him about it."
Salah's Liverpool host Leicester City tonight, with the chance to move seven points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
