Liverpool's trident of Salah, Mane and Firmino reach milestone of 250 goals under Klopp

Liverpool's fearsome attacking trio of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino has now scored a combined 250 goals in all competitions under manager Jurgen Klopp. The incredible milestone was achieved when Mo Salah scored a brace against Brighton during Liverpool's 3-1 at The Amex on Wednesday night. Jurgen Klopp took charge of Liverpool back in October 2015 and in less than five years, the German seems to have brought the Reds back on their perch with Champions League and Premier League glory over the past two seasons.

Roberto Firmino has been at Anfield for the entirety of Jurgen Klopp's tenure at Liverpool while Senegalese star Sadio Mane joined from Southampton in 2016.

Despite moving to Anfield after Firmino and Sadio Mane, Mo Salah has scored 94 goals in all competitions for Liverpool, the highest among the front three. Sadio Mane has scored 79 times for the Reds while Roberto Firmino has grabbed 77 goals under Klopp's reign.

Ever since Jurgen Klopp took charge of Liverpool, the 53-year-old has instilled an aggressive style of football which has allowed his front three to reap the benefits. Liverpool's high-pressing against Brighton on Wednesday once again showcased why Klopp believes that 'Gegepressing is better than any playmaker in the world'. Liverpool ran out 3-1 winners against Brighton as Mo Salah scored twice and grabbed an assist for Jordan Henderson's strike taking the Egyptian's tally to 100 goal contributions for the Reds in just 104 Premier League appearances. On the 250 goals milestone from his front three, Klopp said in his post-match interview, "Wow. This is exceptional, without these boys I would be in this situation minus 250 goals."
