With only three games left to go of his Liverpool tenure, Jürgen Klopp could be seen exchanging tense words with Mohamed Salah, the man he helped catapult to global stardom.

There's no reason to fear any lasting rift, but it summed up the overall feeling that this is simply not how things were supposed to end.

Liverpool is now almost certainly out of the title picture, and while Klopp will stress the need to pick up some more points to mathematically confirm a Champions League place, his last three games have been rendered competitively meaningless.

Of course, prior to the start of the season, a trophy and an immediate return to Europe's top table would have been considered a moderate success, after the struggles of the last campaign.

But Klopp's leaving announcement changed things, and this all now feels like a bit of a let-down.

Salah was no doubt just as desperate as everyone else to give Klopp the send-off he deserves, and ironically, that was probably part of what caused his frustration to spill over.

Klopp immediately sought to pour cold water on the story, insisting that he had already spoken with Salah and that this was the end of the matter.

"We have already spoken in the dressing room and for me that’s done," Klopp said on TNT Sports.

While Klopp perhaps did it in a more polished way, both were moving to avoid further scrutiny on the incident, declining to answer questions about it.

While it would certainly be interesting to find out exactly what was said between the pair, the best thing for Liverpool now is for the matter to be put to rest.
