Despite explanations from Slot for the recent benching, the 33-year-old expressed deep frustration in a recent “sensational interview,” suggesting he is being made a scapegoat for the team’s recent poor form. Salah confirmed that his previously strong rapport with Slot has “completely broken down.”
“I think it is very clear that somebody wants me to take all the blame,” said the Liverpool legend via BBC Sport.
“I’ve said a few times before that I have a good relationship with the manager and now all of a sudden we have no relationship. I don’t know why.
“It seems like the club are throwing me under the bus – that’s how I feel.
“It [the situation] is not acceptable to me, to be fair. I don’t get it. It’s like I’m being thrown more under the bus. I don’t think I’m the problem. I have done so much for this club. I don’t have to fight every day for my position because I earn it. I earned my position.”
