"He’s Acting Childish in my Eyes", Jamie Carragher Hits Back at Mo Salah

Summary

Jamie Carragher has hit out at Mohamed Salah for being childish and calling out the manager, Arne Slot, for benching him.
Salah said in his interview that Carragher is gonna rip him apart once again after the draw against Leeds United, without blaming anyone else in the team.

The drama around the Liverpool football club just doesn't seem to end, with new issues emerging with every passing day. A flurry of poor results was followed by Mohamed Salah being the centre of controversy due to his explosive interview. The Mohamed Salah controversial interview is the latest in a list of ‘wrongs’ happening at the Merseyside-based club.

People have a lot of opinions on this matter and have spoken out publicly, some in support of Salah, some in support of the manager Arne Slot, who is also under scrutiny. Meanwhile, it's Jamie Carragher who has provided his two cents on the whole scenario after former Liverpool player, Michael Owen. Let's have a look at what the former Reds defender had to say.

What was Jamie Carragher's Response to Mohamed Salah?

Jamie Carragher has been a true Scouser since his playing days, and could be seen defending his team on television now & then. The former defender doesn't think twice before saying his heart out, whether it is for the good of the club or bad. Well, Jamie Carragher loves controversies, and he might have given birth to a new one.

Jamie Carragher criticises Mohamed Salah by launching a passionate attack of words on the Egyptian. In his statement, Salah said that after years of service for the club, he is being continuously benched to his dislike. He also said that Jamie Carragher, who is now a pundit at Sky Sports, will have a go at him again, just like the former Liverpool player has done on occasions, after seeing his horrendous form this season.

In reply, Jamie Carragher has called out Mohamed Salah for being ‘childish’ and reminded of the greatest ever Liverpool players like Kenny Dalglish and Ian Rush, who never spoke a bad word about the club in public, even after being treated badly at the club at some point in time. He further asked the Egyptian to apologise to Arne Slot and keep working for the betterment of the team.

Listen, you are the king of Egypt, the greatest winger in Premier League history and I get that you feel wronged. But the truth is you’ve been awful and now you throw a strop only when it’s about yourself? Legends like Kenny, Rush and a few others would never have behaved in this way and he’s acting childish in my eyes. Why say this now? This is a time where he should be hanging his head in shame and apologising to Arne for his conduct.

A new feud has started in the form of Jamie Carragher vs Salah, and it will be interesting to see how far this goes in the context of the current situation. As it stands, Liverpool is still 9th in the Premier League, and Mohamed Salah is reportedly leaving the club in January if things don't change for good.
