Rooney Claims Salah Is Unworthy Of A Farewell Appearance

Following a four to two loss against Aston Villa which has damaged their chances in the Champions League Salah stated that Liverpool need to become an aggressive attacking side that strikes fear into their rivals once more.

The player from Egypt is set to depart Liverpool when the season concludes having netted 257 goals and securing six major honours while at the club.

Rooney has strongly criticised the attacker believing he should not be allowed a farewell appearance in the final home match against Brentford.

It is disappointing given all he has accomplished at Liverpool for him to speak out against Slot in this manner.

Calling for heavy metal style play is like requesting the return of Jurgen Klopp but I doubt Mo Salah has the physical ability for such a demanding approach now as he lacks the pace and energy required.

Should I be in Arne Slots position I would keep him away from the ground entirely for that last fixture.

Rooney recalled his own experience with Sir Alex Ferguson where a disagreement led to him being left out of the squad for the managers final home game.

By making these remarks he has created conflict implying a lack of faith in Arne Slot and burdening his current teammates who remain at the club with additional issues to handle.

The season ends without silverware for Liverpool at home on Sunday providing a disappointing conclusion for the star winger who might miss his opportunity to say goodbye.
