Liverpool Echo IconSportFootballMohamed SalahThe former Liverpool striker previously played the role of peacemaker in the Liverpool camp, and he could be doing the same again.Former Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino seems to be taking up his role as peacemaker again with his simple message surrounding the situation with Mohamed Salah. He will however be back in the squad for the game against Brighton at the weekend after holding talks with Slot.Speaking ahead of the game, Slot confirmed that he was planning to hold a 'conversation' with Salah over the situation.

By self-admission, quite a bit of that time was spent playing peacemaker between Salah and Sadio Mane.In an extract in his book two years ago, Firmino, who played in between the two wide men, revealed part of his role under Jurgen Klopp which made the trio so successful."They were never best friends; each kept himself to himself," he said in the extract released to the Guardian. They always acted with the utmost professionalism."I never took sides.

That's why they love me: I always passed the ball to both; my preference was for the team's victory."Many focus on what I brought to the attacking trio in tactical terms, but perhaps just as important was the human element: my role as peacemaker, unifier. But on the pitch they supported each other, they fought for each other."It seems that Firmino's work in easing the tensions were invaluable to Klopp.
