Liverpool manager Arne Slot opened up on the personal strife he went through while dropping Mohamed Salah, lamenting that it was “not a nice thing” to see his talisman sitting on the bench.
Yet, the plush row of seats at the London Stadium would be Salah’s position for the entirety of Liverpool’s Premier League clash with West Ham United on Sunday. The 33-year-old forward did not take kindly to his first Premier League outing as an unused substitute in five years and Slot has since revealed that he didn’t enjoy it much either.
