🚨🎙️Jamie Carragher on Arne Slot response to Mohammed Salah’s comment about the Liverpool’s standards dropping
“Many might be surprised to hear this from me but Mo Salah has been an absolute legend for this club — goals, assists, leadership, the lot. When a player like that speaks about standards in training, the gym, and how you set the example for the young lads, you listen. Not get all prickly in a press conference and start gripping the chair like someone's questioned your authority.
Arne Slot’s doing a decent job, but this felt off. You don’t push back on Mo like that, especially when he’s basically warning the club not to let things slip after he leaves. Salah’s earned the right to say it. If the manager’s getting defensive instead of backing his biggest star fully, that’s a concern. Standards start at the top — and right now it looks like Mo’s the one still raising the bar."
