Alisson addressed the media ahead of Liverpool taking on Inter Milan in the Champions League on TuesdayAlisson Becker is adamant Liverpool’s squad is not being distracted by the Mohamed Salah furore as he offered his backing for under-pressure Arne Slot.Salah sparked controversy with his comments after remaining on the bench in the 3-3 draw at Leeds United on Saturday in which he claimed the club had thrown him “under the bus” and hinted he could leave.The Egyptian was subsequently left out of the Reds squad for the Champions League trip to Inter on Tuesday with the club reacting to his outburst.Salah nevertheless took part in the training session on Monday lunchtime and was part of the warmdown at the AXA Training Centre on Sunday after the Leeds game.And Alisson said: “After the interview I thought it would be really weird but it wasn't.“We know it's a personal situation and we respect that. We were a little bit caught by surprise but we know it's a personal situation so we are leaving it to him and the club.“It doesn't matter what we think.

That should be enough but we believe in his knowledge, his style of playing that he is capable of helping us to turn around this situation.“My relationship with the manager is fine.”Alisson added: “It's not only about ourselves but that's the situation with the club as well, they trust him.“It's not only his responsibility, as a player I share it with him. Of course he's the man responsible for how the team plays, but we are taking the responsibility and the ones that take action and can change everything.“It doesn't make the situation any easier, but we are trying to do that.

To get us back on track for the football we were playing last season.”Alisson believes Salah would have known what to expect after his comments but wants to see the player back in action for Liverpool again.“I hope he plays again for the club but that's a personal situation between Mo and the club,” he said.“We as his team-mates and his friends we hope the best thing happens for him, but as Liverpool FC players we want the best for the club. We have a good relationship, it's not just a team-mate, we spend so much time together.
