Following Salah's rebellion, coach Slot reacted quickly and decisively. He dropped Salah from the squad for the 1-0 victory against Inter in the Champions League on December 10th. Fans were immediately curious about the reaction within the team.
Andrew Robertson insists he still wants to play alongside Salah, but according to Daily Mail sources, the majority of Liverpool players support Slot, believing the Dutch manager helps them perform to their full potential even when the team is struggling.
The source also revealed that the decision to exclude Salah from the trip to Milan was a collective one among the Liverpool board, not just Slot's. At least for now, power in this crisis still rests with the head coach – but as always at Anfield, everything will depend on the results on the pitch.
On December 7th, Salah was benched for the third consecutive Premier League match, watching Liverpool squander a two-goal lead and draw 3-3 away at Leeds. After the final whistle, the 33-year-old striker stopped at the press area and gave a controversial interview. He also hinted that the match against Brighton on December 13th might be his last appearance for Liverpool.
The statement immediately caused a huge stir in English football. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher called it a shameful act, accusing Salah and his team of deliberately choosing the timing to put pressure on him.
Conversely, Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard expressed sympathy for Salah's desire to play, but argued that the phrase "throwing someone under the bus" was wrong. Commentator Paul Merson sided with the player, emphasizing that anyone left out of the squad has the right to be upset.
