Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has stoked the flames following his touchline bust-up with Jurgen Klopp, insisting: "If I speak, there will be fire."

The forward and manager were caught on camera in a heated argument as the player prepared to be substituted on against West Ham, having been dropped from the starting line-up at the London Stadium.
