This Saturday, Liverpool was held to a draw by West Ham (2-2), effectively ending their hopes of clinching the Premier League title. Time for settling scores? Mohamed Salah ignited the flames.

Jürgen Klopp had a heated exchange with Mohamed Salah during the Liverpool vs. West Ham match. Apparently, the Egyptian winger was not pleased to be sent onto the pitch in the 79th minute, just after West Ham’s equalizer. The tension between the two iconic figures of the Reds was diffused thanks to the intervention of Darwin Nuñez, who was also about to enter the game.

« We discussed it in the locker room. It’s settled, » assured Liverpool’s coach to the journalists. « I think so too, » Salah retorted… before following up with a more unsettling statement. « If I speak today, it will be fire. »

According to The Athletic, it appears that the dispute started when Salah was subbed in. It seems the player didn’t appreciate the decision to keep him on the bench following his recent poor performances.
