Salah Extends Apology to Liverpool Dressing Room, Says Curtis Jones
Jones has revealed that Salah apologised to the entire Liverpool squad in the wake of the fallout from his recent interview.
The Fallout
Salah was left out from a key Champions League match after voicing frustrations and stating his connection to the head coach had deteriorated.
“Salah is an individual and he can say his own stuff,” Jones revealed. “He said sorry to the group and was like: ‘If my words hurt anyone, I apologise.’”
The manager has chosen not to comment publicly on whether he got an explanation from the veteran striker.
Looking Ahead
The player stated that the dressing room atmosphere was unchanged. “He was the exact same Mo, he was smiling and everybody was exactly the same with him,” the midfielder explained.
The midfielder also suggested that a teammate fighting for a place is a positive trait. “It's clear there are certain ways you can express yourself,” he said. “Yet, should someone be happy to just not start, then I think that’s more of an issue.”
Team Form
The team's performance have stayed unbeaten in the games following the interview fallout. The player is convinced the forward's comments were not designed to cause disruption.
“When there’s been any sort of anger, the source has been from a place of caring,” Jones concluded. “We’re past that now and we’re gelling well as a team, performing and starting to win games.”
