Liverpool Winger Salah says Liverpool must turn their attention to improving their Premier League form after beating Maribor 7-0 in the Champions League.

Jurgen Klopp’s Reds travelled to Slovenia on Tuesday night off the back of a run in which they’d won just once in eight games.

But they left that sorry form behind by powering in seven goals - with Salah, Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Trent Alexander-Arnold getting on the scoresheet.

Liverpool now sit top of Group E having collected five points from their opening three games of their Champions League campaign.

And Salah wants to see Klopp's team take the kind of performance they delivered against Maribor into their domestic fixtures going forwards.

“I'm very happy, now we have to concentrate on improving the results in the Premier League and keep on moving forward”

Sarah told BT Sport: ”I think it was a great game, we did good, it was an important result for us and we have to keep looking forward.

"The team did good, we had a good result and that is the most important thing.

"I'm very happy, now we have to concentrate on improving the results in the Premier League and keep on moving forward."

Despite their woes, Salah said Liverpool were optimistic about their chances going into the Maribor encounter.

"We had bad luck in the last three or four games. Everyone was confident a good result was coming," he added.

Liverpool are back in Premier League action when they take on Tottenham at Wembley on Sunday.
