Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp has reacted to Salah’s attitude after being substituted in Liverpool’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Sunday at Stamford Bridge.
Salah was visibly angry after he was replaced in the 75th minute by youngster, Ben Doak.
Klopp has now said that he doesn’t expect Salah to be happy with his decision.
Salah, who had a goal ruled out for offside in the first half, was seeking to score in Liverpool’s first game of the season for the seventh consecutive year.
“I can understand because if Mo scored, it would have been a new record for goals scored in the opening game, but I didn’t think about that. We needed stability, and we needed fresh legs. It was super intense for everybody. That’s all I can say about it; his reaction was absolutely okay.
“When I sub a player and he is jumping into my arms at 1-1 and he is a striker who thinks he will score, I would be really surprised, so that’s absolutely fine,” Klopp said.
