Mohamed Salah Extends Apology to Squad, Says Curtis Jones
Jones has revealed that Mohamed Salah apologised to the group of players in the wake of the uproar from his public comments.
The Incident
The striker was dropped from a vital match subsequent to making accusations and stating his rapport with Arne Slot had soured.
“He speaks for himself and he can say his own stuff,” Jones revealed. “He said sorry to the group and was like: ‘If I’ve affected anybody, I apologise.’”
The head coach has refused to disclose on whether he got an explanation from the veteran striker.
Team Unity
The player stated that the dressing room atmosphere stayed normal. “He was the exact same Mo, he had a big smile on his face and it was business as usual,” Jones added.
Jones also noted that a competitor wanting to play is preferable. “It's clear there are different methods you can handle situations,” he said. “However, if a player is content to just not start, then I think that’s more of an issue.”
On-Field Response
Liverpool's form have been impressive in the matches since the initial controversy. He feels the outburst were not designed to destabilise the squad.
“When there’s been any sort of anger, the source has been from a desire to win,” he finished. “It's behind us and we’re gelling well as a team, performing and securing victories.”
