Graeme Souness believes that Mohamed Salah is one of the 'most selfish players' he has ever watched and has claimed that the Egyptian forward 'is leaving Liverpool' amid speculation he could be on his way out of Anfield. Doubts have been raised this week over whether Salah will stay at the Merseyside club past this summer, after the 31-year-old was embroiled in a touchline row with Jurgen Klopp during the Reds 2-2 draw away to West Ham on Saturday.  The outgoing manager had opted to rest Salah from the starting line up for that match - with Liverpool's attackers having struggled in front of goal during the Reds' title run-in. The 31-year-old forward, whose contract will expire in 2025, was seen speaking furiously with Klopp on the sideline before the Egyptian fanned the flames after the match, telling journalists: 'If I speak, there would be fire if'.

Mohamed Salah's touchline spat with Jurgen Klopp is inexcusable. He crossed a line no player should ever cross by behaving like a spoilt child, writes OLIVER HOLT

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 29, 2024
OLIVER HOLT: Mo Salah is an exceptional footballer. Everything I have heard about him, from team-mates, ex-team-mates and people who have worked with him, suggests that he is also a model professional, someone whose dedication to the game is beyond reproach, someone whose meticulous attitude towards recovery between matches, as one example, sets the standard. It is a high bar at a club that has won as much as Liverpool, but Salah is one of Anfield's all-time greats, a player who deserves his place in the club's iconography alongside legendary strikers like Roger Hunt, Kevin Keegan and Ian Rush, a man who has won it all during his time on Merseyside. He has been good for Liverpool and Liverpool has been good for him and the way he behaved towards Jurgen Klopp on the touchline at the London Stadium on Saturday afternoon does not change the fact that his record demands he continues to be regarded with great respect long after he leaves. The consistency of his goalscoring has been remarkable.

Mohamed Salah might regret his decision not to leave Liverpool last summer, Mail Sport's Ian Ladyman suggested in the latest episode of the It's All Kicking Off! podcast.  Salah's form has somewhat dried up towards the end of the season after a brilliant campaign that had looked set to fire Liverpool towards an unlikely quadruple in Jurgen Klopp's final season.  However, the Reds are now out of the FA Cup and Europa League, while their Premier League bid seems to have come to an end three games early after another draw away at West Ham on Saturday.

Alan Shearer has come to the defence of Mohamed Salah, after the Liverpool's bizarre touchline row with manager Jurgen Klopp. The Reds forward was involved in a heated exchange with his manager during the 2-2 draw with West Ham on Saturday. Salah was left on the bench for the trip for the London Stadium, but upon being introduced to the game by the German, let his frustration boil over in the direction of Klopp. Klopp seemed to say something to the Egyptian that provoked an angry reaction, and it led to Salah continually waving his arms about, pointing to the pitch and then pointing at his manager. Speaking on the incident during BBC's Match of the Day, Shearer had sympathy for the Liverpool talisman and could understand his frustrations.

Phil Foden's firing at full speed for the stratosphere! Man City star is hitting heights beyond Paul Scholes, Kevin De Bruyne and Kaka... and he's even surpassing Yaya Toure's 2013-14 season

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 28, 2024
JACK GAUGHAN: Imagine if Phil Foden took penalties. Only Ollie Watkins has scored more from open play than Manchester City's No 47 this season. Not Erling Haaland, not Cole Palmer, not Mohamed Salah. Foden is now doing what he has always threatened to, mining numbers from that innate ability they all saw in the academy and entering a whole new stratosphere. Two more at Brighton on Thursday night helped Manchester City keep the destiny of this fascinating title race in their own hands and took Foden to 25 for club and country. He goes to Nottingham Forest on Sunday, where a glaring miss in a February draw last season served to show there was much to learn when it came to honing a lethal edge at the crunch.

DANNY MURPHY: If Mohamed Salah goes, at least it will be for a big fee ...but keeping Virgil van Dijk is the key for new boss Arne Slot as he looks to fill Jurgen Klopp's huge shoes

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 27, 2024
DANNY MURPHY: There was no ideal candidate out there to replace Jurgen Klopp because they are such huge shoes to fill. Not just in terms of team-building, but the relationship he had with the fans and the city. Even Xabi Alonso didn't tick all the boxes because he's only been a manager for a couple of years. I'm sure Liverpool have done their due diligence on Arne Slot and it's positive for the fans that he plays the game on the front foot just like Klopp. We're told he has a confident and humorous personality as well which is positive. He won't need three years to build a team to compete at the top level like Klopp did because he already has a squad in place with quality and the right blend of youth and experience.

The end looks nearer than ever for Mohamed Salah at Liverpool after petty touchline row with Jurgen Klopp - a £150m Saudi move suddenly looks more appealing, writes LEWIS STEELE

WEST HAM 2-2 LIVERPOOL - LEWIS STEELE AT THE LONDON STADIUM: 'If I speak, there will be fire,' said the forward, who earlier had a heated exchange with Jurgen Klopp (left) on the touchline when he was about to come on as a substitute. Arms were outstretched, fingers pointed and Darwin Nunez , of all people, had to step in as an unlikely peacemaker. The German manager tried to play it down and said: 'We spoke about that moment in the dressing room with the lads, it's done.' Klopp tried to extinguish any flames of speculation but Salah then added fuel, the debate roared on and soon became out of control. Social media is not the best gauge for fan opinion but a large majority of supporters soon started to turn on Salah, the man with 210 Liverpool goals to his name, after his petty antics threatened to overshadow the farewell tour of club legend Klopp.

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 26, 2024
The Premier League's most wasteful players this season have been revealed, with three Liverpool stars ranking inside the top-ten footballers to have missed the most big chances during the 2023-24 campaign. The Reds have notably struggled to find the back of the net of late - and their scoring woes has been costly, so much so that Liverpool have seemingly dropped out of the title race following their 2-0 defeat by Everton on Wednesday night.  'I don't know [if we're still in the race],' Klopp admitted after the Merseyside derby. 'I can only apologise to the people. Everybody who is with us knows how hard this is for us as well, but I know for other people it's especially hard. So we should have done better but we didn't and that's why we lost.'
