Mo Salah is being called selfish and also caring about Liverpool with his āheavy metalā comments. Itās possible to be both, caring about himself and the club. One of Liverpoolās greatest ever players was making a legitimate point, and he has a right to. Salah could have delivered his critique to the hierarchy in private but heās leaving, rightly so as the revered 33-year-old is not the force of old. Heās more string quartet than heavy metal. By posting his critique to his 62m followers on Instagram, Salah wants everyone to know how he feels - and how he feels a club heās served so well and loves so much can re-find its way. Of course, itās embarrassing for Arne Slot, especially when so many of Salahās team-mates ālikeā the post (whatever their reasons). It heaps more pressure on the head coach. But the football overseen by Slot isnāt good enough at the moment. It lacks direction, intensity and authority. Salah is right. Slot has to focus most on ensuring Liverpool finish in the Champions League positions, rise above the criticism and give Salah the send-off a club legend deserves at Anfield on Sunday. #LFC

He can go and do one. If it was Man U player, he would be on his ex team-mateās side.

Well done Mo for telling the truth as it is, and as we now all feel it is. He should be commended for it, and not criticized. It takes courage to do this.

The worst part of Rooneyās podcast thing with the BBC is their insistence on creating articles on every single utterance he makes.

Multiple hair transplants have rotted the few brain cells he had left. This is a fella who downed tools once heād got a new contract and made multiple transfer requests. Dickhead.

There might be a lot of air in Rooneyās head, but there are a couple of points that he makes that I agree with:
-
Salah is well past āHeavy Metalā football - whatever that has meant over the last 5 years. Heās harking back to the before time. Before Klopp finally conceded that his team couldnāt consistently win - and in particular the big prize - while going all out all the time. Back a long time ago to be fair because Iām pretty sure we were still in the twenty teens when that was still occurring on a match-by-match basis, no matter how much Salah and perhaps the majority of fans are trying to rewrite that history. Salah is well past that game style and he knows it.

If there are in fact a number of players that have turned on Slot behind the scenes (so far the only evidence is Salah*) , then slot is failing in one of his key tasks which is to be the authoritative voice across the entirety of the playing group. Klopp famously would absolutely rip a player a new arsehole in front of the entire player group if they were dissenting via social media. So I agree with Rooney that Slot needs to take a very hard line with the playing group behind the scenes. However, the idea of Slot dropping Salah in his final match might genuinely get him assassinated so that will never happen and is a ridiculous, bitter-driven idea which Rooney should have kept in his airhead.
I havenāt read as much into Salahs post as most. I see it as a guy about to play his final game, trying to engineer an atmosphere that will deliver him a decent farewell match by using language that the fans will swallow whole. Selfish? Sure. But he also committed to the club years back, on the promise of club legend status when he didnāt need to take that route so I wonāt hold that selfishness of wanting a happy farewell game against him.
*Using likes on a post by a club legend on the eve of his final game would possibly be the biggest stretch when discussing an alleged mutiny.

Mo has chosen the right time to leave and the wrong time to write that nonsense. And then the hysterics over bloody likes. What an embarrassment this whole episode is for the Club.
Way to miss the forest for of the trees.
Not for a moment did I (and I am sure most other fans, and Rooney is most definitely not one of them, in addition to being a total schmuck) think of that small period when we used to go way too aggressively at opponents at the risk of leaving our defence exposed.
By āheavy metal footballā he meant the overall picture. Intensity was our identity. We would be hunting down out opponents through aggressive but intelligent pressing schemes. To narrow it down to that period of Kloppās tenure is no different from when Slot said āwell itās good that we scored two goals at villa park, at least thatās somethingā. Mo used a catch-all term in a social media post. You want him to talk about pressing and gegenpressing with diagrams?
If you didnāt like what Mo said fair enough, maybe itās the nature and timing of the thing. But if THATās what you got out of it then frankly itās just churlish.
Also Salah is leaving. He is not going to be part of any new Liverpool evolution, heavy metal or otherwise. But he knows what can bring us success again and maybe even more importantly, what connects the team with the fans. He genuinely wants the best for the club. How is that hard to understand?
As for Rooney, he can go fuck himself, or some other granny.

I agree with what he says, but itās not courageous. Another six days and drives off into the sunset.
Look at the shite being flung at him in the media. The easy thing for him would have been to say nothing. But he probably felt that a statement was needed at this point time. Possibly also to provoke a reaction within the squad. After all, his comments werenāt directly aimed at Slot only. Everyone at the club could feel himself concerned given the abysmal current standards in terms of performances.
