Salah May Destroy Liverpool’s Achievements, Says Rooney

Anthony Ufoh

Ex Manchester United and England striker has cautioned Liverpool FC’s player, Mohammed Salah, over his recent criticism of manager, Arne Slot.

After Liverpool’s 3-3 draw with Leeds United at Elland Road on Saturday, Salah stated that he felt Liverpool had “thrown him under the bus”.

This is coming on the heels of his (Salah) bench rows in as many as three games, which is clearly not going down well with the Egypt International.

Reacting to the outburst, Rooney questioned why Salah would come out publicly with his comments.

Rooney made this statement during a podcast show where he stated, “He is absolutely destroying his legacy at Liverpool.

“It would be sad for him to throw it all away. He’s gone about it all wrong.”

Rooney urged Slot to now show his authority and not involve Salah in Tuesday’s Champions League game at Inter Milan or next Saturday’s Premier League fixture with Brighton at Anfield.

“Arne Slot has to show his authority and pull him in and say, ‘You are not travelling with the team, what you said is not acceptable.

“Take yourself off to Afcon and let everything calm down. If I were him, there would be no way he would be in the team.

“It needs to be sorted out quickly either way.”
