Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy said Mohamed Salah is “making it all about him” after the winger criticised the club and manager Arne Slot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking after Saturday’s 3-3 draw at Leeds<\/a>, where he was an unused substitute, Salah said he feels like he has been “thrown under the bus” by Liverpool.<\/p>\n

Murphy said Salah has a right to be “emotional, angry and frustrated” after his third successive game on the bench, but urged the Egypt forward to “keep it in the four walls of the club”.<\/p>\n

“Knock on the manager’s door, see the owners, whatever you have to do, express your frustration,” Murphy said on Match of the Day.<\/p>\n

“By doing this, he’s causing the team a problem and the manager a problem and making it all about him. <\/p>\n

“You can’t do it. Whether you agree with him you don’t deal with it like this.”<\/p>\n

Salah, 33, is going to the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) on 15 December and sources have told BBC Sport that Liverpool are open-minded about his future amid interest from Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

Saturday’s draw against Leeds was the fourth time in the past five Premier League games that Liverpool have dropped points – losing two and drawing two – and they sit eighth in the league.<\/p>\n

“Everyone has to fight for their place and perform at a certain level,” Murphy said.<\/p>\n

“A lot of other big-name players are getting stick and getting the fanbase turned against them a bit. Everyone is being judged.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy said Mohamed Salah is “making it all about him” after the winger criticised…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":331709,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,41,39,42,40],"class_list":{"0":"post-331708","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/331708","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=331708"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/331708\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/331709"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=331708"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=331708"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=331708"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
