Former Liverpool striker and football pundit Stan Collymore has criticised Mohamed Salah following the Egyptian’s explosive post-match remarks after Liverpool’s 3-3 draw with Leeds United. Salah, who has been benched for three consecutive games under manager Arne Slot, claimed the club had “thrown him under the bus,” sparking major debate around his future at Anfield.
Collymore argued that although Salah is a Liverpool legend, he is “nowhere near” the untouchable status of football icons Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. The pundit stated that most professionals would accept being benched when out of form, calling Salah’s recent frustration a result of “modern football’s cult of personalities.”
Salah has scored only five goals in 19 matches this season — an unusually low return for the forward. With Liverpool reportedly open-minded about Salah’s future, his recent comments and form continue to fuel transfer rumours ahead of the January window.
