“He was absolutely terrible. I’m sorry to say but he was a flop today. He is the main reason we almost lost to Manchester United” – Mohamed Salah expressed extreme anger towards a 24-year-old Liverpool player following the match against Man United.
Mohamed Salah was reportedly very upset with one of his Liverpool teammates during the match at Old Trafford, according to Clinton Morrison. Liverpool began the game against Manchester United positively, with Luis Diaz scoring in the 23rd minute.

Liverpool began the game against Manchester United positively, with Luis Diaz scoring in the 23rd minute.
In the early stages of the game, United scored a goal, but Alejandro Garnacho was deemed offside.
Afterward, Jurgen Klopp’s team took control of the game, creating several chances before Diaz scored.
Dominik Szoboszlai had one chance, saved brilliantly by Andre Onana.
Meanwhile, Darwin Nunez had an opportunity to set up Mohamed Salah with a chance after a well-executed move.
The 24-year-old had an opportunity to pass the ball to Salah after the Egyptian had created some space ahead of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
However, Nunez failed to look up quickly enough, resulting in the attack losing its momentum, which visibly frustrated Salah.
Clinton Morrison, speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, observed the incident and noted Salah’s evident frustration with his teammate.
Fortunately for Liverpool, they didn’t have to wait long for a breakthrough, as Nunez eventually provided the assist. He directed a corner towards the back post, where Diaz was well-placed for a straightforward tap-in.
In the clash between Manchester United and Liverpool, despite a promising start from Erik ten Hag’s team, Liverpool took control of the game after Alejandro Garnacho’s disallowed goal.
Although the Reds created numerous opportunities, they failed to secure a much-needed two-goal lead, which they would later regret.
Liverpool’s missed chances came back to haunt them early in the second half when Bruno Fernandes executed a remarkable finish.
Seizing on a misplaced pass from Jarell Quansah, the United player capitalized on Caoimhin Kelleher’s positioning and scored from just inside the Liverpool half.
Kobbie Mainoo extended United’s lead with another impressive goal in the 67th minute, curling a shot into the top corner after receiving the ball in the box.
Liverpool’s fortunes improved when Harvey Elliott, who came off the bench, won a penalty after a late challenge from Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
Mohamed Salah calmly converted the penalty to score yet another goal against Liverpool’s arch-rivals.
Despite their efforts, Liverpool couldn’t find a winning goal, and considering the chances they created throughout the match, they’ll likely view this result as two points lost.
