Rooney questioned whether Salah is suited to the high-intensity football that Jurgen Klopp's teams are known for, suggesting that his legs may not be able to keep up with the tempo and intensity required. He also implied that Slot's team may not be able to cope with the changes that Salah is advocating for.

Rooney drew a parallel with his own experience with Alex Ferguson, saying that he would have left him out of the squad for Ferguson's final game at Old Trafford if he had made similar comments. He believes that Salah's comments have not only damaged his own reputation but also put his teammates in a difficult position.

Liverpool's season will come to a close at home this Sunday, and it is unclear whether Salah will get the chance to say farewell to the fans. The team's trophyless season has been marked by a disappointing end to Salah's time at the club.
