Liverpool's Star Offers Apology to Liverpool Dressing Room, Discloses Curtis Jones
Jones has shared that Salah expressed regret to the team in the wake of the uproar from his televised remarks.
The Fallout
The striker was dropped from a key Champions League match following making accusations and suggesting his connection to the head coach had deteriorated.
“Salah is an individual and he can say his own stuff,” Jones told Sky Sports. “His apology was clear and was like: ‘Should anyone feel slighted, I'm sorry.’”
The head coach has chosen not to disclose on whether he received a personal apology from the player.
Team Unity
The player stated that the squad's reaction stayed normal. “He was his usual self, he had a big smile on his face and everybody was exactly the same with him,” the midfielder explained.
The midfielder also noted that a competitor wanting to play is preferable. “I understand there are specific approaches you can handle situations,” he said. “Yet, should someone be happy to just sit out, then I think that’s concerning.”
Team Form
Liverpool's form have been impressive in the games following the initial controversy. Jones believes the outburst were not designed to destabilise the squad.
“In moments of frustration, the source has been from a place of caring,” Jones concluded. “It's behind us and we’re uniting strongly, performing and on a positive run.”
