Okay, it’s Carragher’s job to make headlines when he stands in front of the microphone on Sky Sports, but this time the Liverpool legend has a good point. Liverpool are surging forward in the Premier League and Champions League four months into the season, where Arne Slot asks everyone to calm down and not take any titles for granted. Mo Salah does the job on the pitch like few others, but feeds the press by saying he is disappointed with Liverpool. Lousy timing, Carragher fires.
-We are almost in December and I have not received an offer from the club to stay. I’m probably more outside than inside… I’m disappointed, but we’ll see,” Salah said, according to The Athletic. Knowing full well that the statement will create reactions.

“I have to say that I am very disappointed with Mohamed Salah. Liverpool have Real Madrid in the middle of this week and Manchester City at the weekend. That is the focus right now. If he keeps making comments and his agent sends cryptic messages, then it’s selfish. Then it’s about thinking about yourself and not about the football club,” Carragher hums on Sky Sports.
Carragher also knows perfectly well that statements like this help to take the focus away from Liverpool’s games. Guess what questions about Salah Arne Slot will get in the next few weeks at the press conferences.
