Jurgen Klopp is just three games from the Anfield exit door - yet that won't stop him from showing Arne Slot who Liverpool should build around.

But the legendary Kop boss is not daft and after news filtered through that Liverpool had finally struck a compensation agreement with Feyenoord for Slot on Friday night, Klopp's team selection at the London Stadium felt like a taste of the future.

It just goes to show there is no time for sentiment from Klopp in his final few weeks as Liverpool boss - even if that means dropping players that have been cornerstones of his remarkable Anfield story, though any chance to win the Premier League title has now been and gone.

Liverpool must now be wondering whether they made the right call when rebuffing a monstrous £150million proposal from Saudi Arabian champions Al Ittihad last summer as Salah is quickly approaching the final 12 months of his Anfield deal and is starting to look past his best.

Salah reacted angrily to Jurgen Klopp on the touchline!

Slot has a virtually impossible job replacing Klopp but recent weeks have proven the 56-year-old's decision to walk away from Anfield was the correct one.
