Salah had posted on social media that he missed the "heavy metal" style of football from the Jurgen Klopp era. Rooney interpreted this statement as a direct attack on Arne Slot's tactical approach and emphasized that Salah's current physical condition is not suited for such a high-tempo game.
The former striker demanded that Arne Slot take firm action and drop Salah from the squad for the final game of the season. Citing his own career, Rooney recalled how Sir Alex Ferguson would have benched him in a similar situation, noting that a manager must always prioritize team discipline.
Salah is performing well below his usual standards this season. According to Rooney, the player is deliberately creating such controversial statements to distract the team and hide his own unsuccessful campaign.
