Use the comment button on the bottom left to have your say Not only does Salah need to leave Liverpool for the sake of his own career, but it is clear he has to so Liverpool can move forward.The fact the players knew he was going to react like this is not exactly a good look, with it very much showing that he is not a team player.Of course, he will want to play as many games as possible and be the star man once again, but his performances have not been as good as those who have replaced him, so he should not just expect to go into the starting XI.He has been a legend and always will be one, but it might be best for him to move on before he says or does anything else that could tarnish his image a little more.
