Mohamed Salah’s consistency in front of goal is terrible, but so is his availability as he is currently Jurgen Klopp’s most used player.
Klopp has managed Mainz, Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool for over 22 years and has worked with numerous players during that time.
Throughout his years as a manager, he has had the luxury of calling up his players every week, and Liverpool have proved no exception.
However, this season alone he has been overtaken by Klopp’s goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller of Dortmund as the player who has played the most minutes under Klopp.
That honor now goes to Salah, who has played a total of 26,337 minutes under Klopp.
That surpasses Weidenfeller’s 25,156 minutes earlier this season.? Mohamed Salah is currently Jurgen Klopp’s most used player, having played 26,337 minutes on the pitch so far.
One?? Mo Salah – 26,3372??
Romain Weidenfeller – 25,156
Three?? Navan Subotica – 25,1074?? Roberto Firmino – 25,095

It is a sign of Salah’s incredible confidence that he has been given a break in Liverpool’s absence, having missed just three games through injury or illness.
Having moved up from fourth this season, the 31-year-old continues to lead most of the time playing under Klopp. Salah surpassed the 25,095 minutes played by Brazil international Roberto Firmino, who moved to Saudi Arabia in the summer.
The former number nine is now fourth, one place ahead of Nevan Subotic (25,107), who was with Klopp at Dortmund.

Of course, this is not the only category in which Salah tops the list under Klopp. Because the winger also holds the titles for most goals and most assists.
His record is 198 goals in 322 games, second only to Sadio Mane (120 goals), and his 87 assists are more than Firmino (79 goals).
Salah is on another level and we were lucky enough to witness his greatness.
