Mohamed Salah was unappreciative of being dropped from Liverpool’s squad for their crucial 2-0 victory against West Ham, according to Arne Slot, who acknowledged his attitude on Tuesday.
Following a terrible run of nine defeats in all competitions, Liverpool boss Slot made changes to the Egypt forward at the London Stadium on Sunday.
The 33-year-old misfiring Salah has only scored four Premier League goals this year, which is a low figure compared to Salah’s 29 last season, which earned him the Golden Boot.
Salah was a “superhuman being,” according to Slot, who led Anfield under his leadership, but he had not been at his best recently.
There are times when you become human while playing for the club, like with all players around the world,” he said. He has scored so many goals for us, but I’m confident he will. ”

Salah’s reaction to being left out impressed Slot, whose eighth-placed team takes on Sunderland on Wednesday, according to Slot, who praised his professionalism and said he was not surprised by Salah’s attitude.
That is a typical response from a player who is capable enough to play for us, he said. He has been a great asset to this club for many years and will continue to do so in the future.
A player is obviously unhappy when they aren’t playing, so yeah. I can tell you that he wasn’t the only one who wasn’t content that he wasn’t beginning. ”
Salah had praised his teammates, according to the Dutchman.
If you go with your feelings, you can’t be a player who is available every three days and play to that high standard.
But Mo is so disciplined and knows how to stay in shape, and he will always be that elite professional no matter where he plays or where he doesn’t play. ”
Salah is scheduled to depart for the Africa Cup of Nations on December 15 according to Slot.
In these situations, there are a player involved, Egypt is involved, and the club is involved, as always. And there are discussions ongoing about what works best for all three of us, he added.
Meanwhile, Regis Le Bris, the manager of Sunderland, claimed his players were looking forward to playing at Anfield despite their newly promoted side currently ranking sixth overall.
He said, “We worked hard to have the privilege of playing this kind of game.” We want to live this kind of experience, even though it is a challenging situation and a difficult game. ”
The Frenchman continued, “Liverpool will be strong, the place (Anfield) is impressive, but we also want to be competitive, so we’ll see.” ”
