ON APPLE & GOOGLE PLAYThe 33-year-old has been criticised by numerous pundits for airing his grievances in public, with Wayne Rooney even saying he should be dropped from the matchday squad against Brentford, and the former England manager has recommended a similarly draconian punishment.Allardyce echoes Rooney’s calls for Salah to be punishedAllardyce let loose about Salah’s actions on the No Tippy Tappy Football podcast as he grumbled: “If you’re gonna say it, say it when you’ve left. You’re not bigger than this football club.'”“[Slot] has brought him back from the spat he had before and he’s still been crap this year.

The last few months have been a soul-destroying chore for the fans.That he aired his grievances on social media last weekend won’t diminish any of the goodwill and adulation which’ll come his way when he and Andy Robertson – two genuine legends of the club – say their goodbyes in L4 on Sunday afternoon.If Allardyce were in a position of power at Liverpool and wanted to deny Salah his Anfield farewell, that’d be his prerogative.
