Mohamed Salah reveals angry Arne Slot laid into Liverpool players

• Slot’s Liverpool surprisingly trailed at half-time against Southampton
• Liverpool hit back in second half to win through Salah brace and Darwin Nunez strike
• 16-point lead opened up at top of Premier League table

Mohamed Salah admitted that Liverpool manager Arne Slot was angry with the first-half performance against bottom of the table Southampton and rightly so.

The Reds surprisingly trailed at the interval to Will Smallbone’s goal, courtesy of some lackadaisical defending just. Before the 15-minute intermission.

It was unfamiliar territory for Southampton. Who had two wins to their name from 27 games played heading to Anfield, and they quickly surrendered their advantage early in the second period. Darwin Nunez levelled the scores. Before Salah netted from the penalty spot. He did so again late on in the game to hand Liverpool a 3-1 win.

Slot, who was in the stands serving สมัคร UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีสำหรับสมาชิกใหม่ the final match of his two-game touchline ban, was less than impress. What he saw in the opening 45 minutes, with Salah – many people’s early favourite for the Ballon d’Or and certain Premier League Golden Boot winner – revealing after the game what he’d said in the dressing room.

“It was a bit of frustration,” Salah “The manager, his head was going for us. But that’s something you need sometimes.

“Because first half, the game was sloppy. We just were slow and taking our time and in the last minute they managed to (go ahead in) the game. But we are now more experienced, we can manage that situation and I’m glad that we did.
