"Arne Slot has to show his authority and pull him in and say 'you are not travelling with the team, what you said is not acceptable',"
"Take yourself off to [the Africa Cup of Nations] and let everything calm down. If I was [Slot] there would be no way he would be in the team."
"He is absolutely destroying his legacy at Liverpool. It would be sad for him to throw it all away. He's gone about it all wrong."
"To have the arrogance to say he doesn't have to earn his place because he has already earned his place, you need to be at your best every week to try and stay in the team."
Mohamed Salah said he had been "thrown under the bus" after being benched for a third consecutive Premier League game as Liverpool drew 3-3 with Leeds. Salah stated his relationship with manager Arne Slot had broken down and expressed uncertainty about his future, while sitting one goal or assist away from a Premier League club record. Wayne Rooney urged Slot to assert authority, advised Salah to step away and calm the situation, and warned that Salah's comments were damaging his legacy and risking resentment among teammates who need him this season.
