Mohamed Salah Criticizes Liverpool, Cites Breakdown with Arne Slot

Mohamed Salah has publicly expressed his discontent with Liverpool FC, hinting at a potential exit amid a breakdown in his relationship with head coach Arne Slot. The Egyptian forward made these remarks after being left out of the starting lineup for the third consecutive match during the recent 3-3 draw against Leeds United.

Mohamed Salah Criticizes Liverpool as Future Remains Uncertain

In a post-match interview, Salah shared his feelings of disappointment and frustration. He stated, “I feel as though I’ve been thrown under the bus by the club.” He voiced concerns that he has become a scapegoat for Liverpool’s struggles this season, suggesting that there are forces within the club that do not wish for him to succeed.

Performance and Promises

Salah’s latest comments follow a period of dwindling game time. He has found himself on the bench multiple times, which he claims is unprecedented in his career. “I’ve done so much for this club over the years, especially last season. Now I’m sitting on the bench and I don’t know why,” he remarked.

  • Last three matches: On the bench.
  • Upcoming matches: Facing Inter Milan and Brighton before AFCON.
  • AFCON start date: December 15, with Egypt in Morocco.

Future at Liverpool

Salah hinted that if conditions do not improve, he may reconsider his future at Anfield. “I can’t say they kept their promises,” he said, referring to the assurances made to him in the summer. As he faces uncertainty about his role, he noted that he still holds a deep affection for the club.

Looking ahead, Salah plans to enjoy the remaining matches regardless of his playing time and indicated a potential farewell to fans before joining his national team for the Africa Cup of Nations. His departure from Liverpool, however, is now a topic of speculation among supporters following his recent comments.

Salah’s Declining Form

There are concerns about Salah’s performance this season. His scoring rate has significantly dipped, with only six goals in his last 22 Premier League appearances. His overall impact and contributions have also decreased, leading pundits to analyze his form critically.

  • Goal Conversion: 29% of his shots on target, down from 41.4% in previous seasons.
  • Current season: Fewer attempts and lower success in dangerous situations.

As Liverpool’s next matches approach, both fans and analysts are left to ponder the implications of Salah’s comments and his evolving status at the club. With the January transfer window looming, many are left speculating whether Salah’s time with Liverpool is nearing an end.
