The Egypt international was left on the bench by Slot for the third game in a row and it is clear that he is not at all happy with the Dutch tactician’s decision.
After the match, Salah did not hold back as he said he now has no relationship with Liverpool’s manager, while suggesting someone is trying to force him out of the club.
The 33-year-old also admitted that he is very disappointed with the way he is being treated. He says he feels like he has been thrown under the bus despite giving so much to the Reds over the years.
Mohamed Salah’s explosive quotes as Liverpool’s season continues to spiral out of control
See below for Salah’s quotes, according vg.nofor not holding back his thoughts after yet another dreadful result for Liverpool in what is shaping up to be an absolute nightmare season.
“I can’t believe it, I’m very disappointed,” he said.
“I have done so much for this club, everyone can see that over the years, especially last season. To be on the bench, I don’t know why. It feels like the club is throwing me under the bus. That’s how I feel.”
“I’ve said before that I have a good relationship with the manager, but suddenly we don’t have a relationship anymore, I don’t know why.
“To be honest, this is not acceptable to me. I don’t know why this always happens to me. ‘We’re throwing Mo under the bus because he’s the problem.’ I don’t think I’m the problem.
“I called my mother yesterday, you didn’t know I wasn’t going to start today, I knew that. I said come to the Brighton game, it doesn’t matter if I play or not, I’m going to enjoy it.”
“We’ll see what happens. In my mind I’m going to enjoy it anyway because I don’t know what’s going to happen anyway. The match will be at Anfield so that will be my farewell before I go to AFCON.”
“The club has made a lot of promises this summer, so far I have been on the bench for three games in a row. You cannot say that they have kept their promises.”
Can Arne Slot recover from this?
Needless to say, this interview really couldn’t have been timed much worse for Slot.
The Reds boss is really struggling to keep things together for the team at the moment, and Salah has very publicly targeted him and undermined his authority here.
Many Liverpool fans will probably side with Salah at this point because he is a club legend, but it’s not exactly the most professional behavior either.
Still, you have to wonder how bad things got between Salah and Slot behind the scenes before the player speaks so openly about it.
