Liverpool Star Mohamed Salah Slams Club Over Treatment, Raises Doubts About Future at Anfield
Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah has claimed that Liverpool have "thrown him under the bus" after being left out of the starting lineup for their third consecutive game. The 30-year-old expressed his disappointment and frustration with the club's management over social media.
Salah's comments came after a 3-3 draw against Leeds, which saw him sit on the bench for the entire 90 minutes. The forward, who has been one of the top scorers in the Premier League for several years, claimed that he was being made a scapegoat for Liverpool's poor start to the season.
"I think it is very clear that someone wanted me to get all of the blame," Salah said. "It seems like the club has thrown me under the bus."
Salah's comments have raised doubts about his future at Anfield, with many speculating that he may be on the verge of leaving the club in January. The forward has been linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League, but he refused to comment on the rumors.
"I don't want to answer this question," Salah said, "because the club is going to take me to a different direction."
The Egyptian forward also expressed his disappointment over not being given a starting spot at Anfield, despite having been one of the top players in the league for several years. He claimed that he was being unfairly targeted by the media and fans, who were quick to criticize him.
"It's silly but I am sorry," Salah said. "I remember a while ago, Harry Kane was not scoring for 10 games, and everyone in the media was like: 'Oh, Harry will score for sure.' When it comes to Mo everyone is like: 'He needs to be on the bench.'"
Salah also claimed that he had been promised more playing time by Liverpool's management after signing a new two-year contract extension in the spring. However, he felt that this promise was not being kept.
"I got a lot of promises and so far I am on the bench for three games so I can't say they have kept the promise," Salah said. "It is not acceptable for me."
The forward's comments have sparked a heated debate among Liverpool fans, with some defending him against criticism and others calling for him to be dropped from the team. However, it is clear that Salah is unhappy with his treatment at Anfield and may soon be leaving the club.
As he prepares for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, Salah's future at Liverpool remains uncertain. Despite his disappointment and frustration, the Egyptian forward vowed to continue supporting the club, saying: "This club, I always support it. My kids will always support it."
However, it is unclear whether this statement will be enough to keep him at Anfield for much longer.

he's been one of the top scorers in the league for years and now he's getting treated like a scapegoat? that's just salty 
it's not surprising he'd want outta there before things get any worse. maybe the saudi pro league is calling his name? 
who knows, but one thing's for sure, salah needs to chill and stop throwing shade on instagram 
he's talkin bout how lfc has "thrown him under the bus" and it's literally soooo true!!!! hes been one of the top players in the league 4 years now and yet he gets left out of the starting lineup 3 games in a row 
like wut kinda treatment is that?! i mean we all know salah has his issues with the media & fans but c'mon lfc u gotta do better than this 
idk but one thing's 4 sure: hes still got my support 
and i'm rootin for him till the end of time 
. If they promised him more playing time after signing the new contract, and now he's being left out of the starting lineup for three consecutive games... something just doesn't add up 
.
). He's been one of the top scorers in the Premier League for years, and suddenly he's being made a scapegoat? 
. As a fan myself, I think it's reasonable to expect my players to perform consistently, regardless of what the media or fans are saying 
.
He's already hinted that he might be looking for a new challenge in January... and I can see why. It's time for Liverpool to rethink their strategy on player management 
He's not just a player, he's an ambassador for the club too! 
Maybe he's feeling a bit underappreciated now that he's getting older? 
Did everyone suddenly forget about him? 
. And what's up with him claiming that the club is trying to make him look like a scapegoat? Sounds like he's just having an attitude problem 
.
I feel bad for Mo Salah. He's been one of the best players in the league for years and now he's being made a scapegoat? 
He's been one of the top scorers in the league, after all! And those promises from the management? Not keeping them is not cool, Mo. 
he's being made a scapegoat and now everyone's all "oh poor mohamed" 
i mean, even harry kane has had his share of droughts, what's different about salah? 
... he's been with Liverpool for years and has given them so much in return, but now he's feeling like an outcast 
. I get it, everyone has off games, but to be left out of the starting lineup for THREE CONSECUTIVE GAMES? that's just not right 
... but with Mo, everyone expects him to be on the bench and no one questions why 
... he needs their support right now more than ever 
. Maybe Klopp needs to re-think his team selection or Mo will start looking elsewhere in Jan
