“That is not the way I feel, but he has the right to feel how he feels things,” Slot said.Arne Slot said he was baffled by the claim that he had no relationship with Mohamed Salah. But my reaction to that is clear and that’s why he is not here tonight.”Slot said it was difficult to know who Salah was referring to when he claimed someone at Liverpool had thrown him under a bus.

But he admitted having only a brief exchange with the player since Saturday – when informing him of the decision to leave him behind on Merseyside – and insisted the club’s reaction demonstrated his authority.“Usually I’m calm, I’m polite,” Slot said. “I don’t think anything but I hope he plays again for the club,” he said.

Among a series of criticisms, the former Liverpool player said: “He’s chosen this weekend to do this, and he’s waited I think to choose a bad result for Liverpool. Supporters, the manager, everyone at the club feels like they’re in the gutter and he’s chosen that time to go for the manager and maybe get him sacked.“I’d remind Salah and his agent that before he came to Liverpool he was known as the man who failed at Chelsea.
