Having left the Egypt international at home after his explosive comments following Saturday’s draw at Leeds – when he suggested he has no relationship with his boss after being benched for three games – the Reds beat Inter Milan 1-0 at San Siro in the Champions League. Afterwards Slot was asked whether there was a way back for a player who had suggested the weekend’s Premier League game at home to Brighton may be his last.



But then you have to ask should the initiative come from me?” However, in his press conference Slot rowed back slightly on those comments. “I didn’t say who should make the first step,” he added.

“All I could ask for, I think the fourth game in 10 days, that is not what you see a lot with only 13 outfield players available with Premier League or Champions League experience,” said Slot. “In the Premier League I don’t think it would have been given.”
