"I think Virgil van Dijk again after the game has come out again and spoke as he should as a captain, he has called Liverpool a mess. I must say on the back of all of these Liverpool defeats, it is always Van Dijk who comes out and as I said, the captain should do that but there should be other players in the dressing room coming out and speaking for the club."
"A year ago this weekend Mo Salah wasn't shy in coming out and speaking about his own situation, about the club not offering a contract. I only ever hear Salah speak when he wins the man of the match or he needs a new contract. I'd like to see Salah come out as one of the leaders, as one of the legends of the club to come out and speak for the team. It shouldn't always be the captain."
Jamie Carragher accuses Mohamed Salah of avoiding media duties during times of crisis and speaking publicly only when personally beneficial, such as award wins or contract issues. Carragher praises Virgil van Dijk for regularly addressing poor results as captain and argues that other senior players should also speak on behalf of the team. Carragher references a past contract standoff in which Salah publicly raised his own situation. The critique forms part of a pattern of Carragher singling out the four-time Golden Boot winner amid Liverpool's recent poor run of form.
