Jurgen Klopp and Mohamed Salah’s touchline spat during Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at West Ham United will now dominate the headlines for these coming days.
Going into the match, and post-match, many thought the main topic of conversation would be Liverpool dropping more points in the Premier League title race.
But it’s quite clear that Mohamed Salah’s angry reaction, just before he was going to be subbed on by his manager, has now got many people talking.
Few people are now talking about the fact that, days after losing to Everton in the Merseyside derby, West Ham and David Moyes probably made sure they won’t get top spot this season with that late Michai Antonio equaliser.
But, after that spat, Gary Lineker noticed what both Liverpool men did after the full-time whistle, especially Salah.

As the Egypt star was walking off the pitch, he proceeded to shake the hand of Moyes, but not his manager, as he told Match of the Day.
That’s clearly not a good look and just makes all of this a lot worse.
“Another messy situation, a bit we saw between Mo Salah and Klopp at the end of the game,” said Lineker.
There is clearly a spat going on here.
“He shakes hands with David Moyes and ignores Jurgen Klopp (after the full-time whistle).
We can’t know (what Jurgen Klopp said to Salah before he was subbed on).
I just hope we don’t fall out, Ian.
Stick with us.”

The Reds are next in action on Sunday when they host Champions League-chasing Tottenham at Anfield.
Usually, Liverpool are very strong at home, but they did suffer back-to-back defeats in the Premier League and Europe recently.
After Salah was dropped to the bench for the trip to West Ham, all eyes will be on the team sheet again and whether or not the club’s star man starts.

Everyone knows that Klopp is leaving, so he might just let it go knowing that he isn’t going to be here in a few months.
