Carragher was particularly critical of the timing of Salah’s comments, coming after Liverpool had conceded a late equaliser to draw 3-3 at Leeds<\/a> on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

The defending Premier League champions have won just four of their past 15 games in all competitions, going back to September, with Slot increasingly finding himself under pressure.<\/p>\n

“He has waited, I think, for a bad result with Liverpool,” Carragher said.<\/p>\n

“Everyone connected with the club feels like they are in the gutter and he has chosen this time to go for the manager – and maybe try and get him sacked.<\/p>\n

“The one line that stands out for me was ‘thrown under the bus’. He has tried to throw the club under the bus twice in the last 12 months.<\/p>\n

“Going after the owners initially, he complained a year ago because they hadn’t given him a contract at the age of 32.<\/p>\n

“With the manager, he should be doing all he can to help the club get out of the worst run of results they have had since the 1950s.”<\/p>\n

Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, former England captain Steph Houghton agreed.<\/p>\n

“It probably couldn’t have come at a worse time for Liverpool,” she said.<\/p>\n

“That’s what makes us think this is something that was pre-planned. He probably expected to come on at some point [against Leeds], he didn’t, and for Mo Salah that probably hurts his ego.<\/p>\n

“But it’s poor from him. I think it does put other people in jeopardy. It’s got us talking about it, which he wants.”<\/p>\n

Carragher also called for Salah not to be “obsessed” with his own numbers and help the other players, such as big-money signings Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, hoping to emulate his success at the club.<\/p>\n

“Some of the criticism has been excessive this season but I will go after Mo Salah when he tries to throw my club under the bus off the pitch and just thinks about himself,” he added.<\/p>\n

“The club have made the right decision in him not going abroad with them and whether he will play for the club again I don’t know.<\/p>\n

“I hope he does because he is one of the greatest players we have ever had.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
