Gary Neville criticizes Mohamed Salah for “throwing a grenade” at Arne Slot after Liverpool's 4-2 defeat to Aston Villa. This loss marks Slot’s 12th of the season, intensifying calls from fans for a managerial change despite Liverpool's owners backing him for next season. The situation escalates with Chelsea securing Xabi Alonso, a prime candidate for Slot's replacement, as their new manager.
Salah took to X to express his frustrations, stating, “Us crumbling to yet another defeat this season was very painful and not what our fans deserve.” He emphasizes the need to restore Liverpool’s identity as a formidable attacking force and mentions that qualifying for next season’s Champions League is the “bare minimum.”
Neville responds sharply, stating that if a Manchester United player made such comments, he would be “fuming.” He notes Salah's remarks are detrimental to Slot, suggesting they signal unrest within the squad. Neville believes Slot will want to finish the season strong, knowing changes are imminent. The backdrop of Chelsea's managerial move adds urgency to Liverpool's situation, putting Slot's future in the spotlight as the season progresses.
