‘Who do you think you are? ’ – Sam Allardyce calls for Mo Salah ‘ban’ after social media comments Sam Allardyce has called for the Liverpool hierarchy to ‘ban’ Mo Salah from making what’s set to be his farewell appearance for the club on Sunday, in light of his recent comments on social media. Last weekend, the winger aimed a thinly-veiled swipe at his head coach Arne Slot over the Dutchman’s tactics and the Reds’ demise this season, calling for a return to the ‘heavy metal’ football which was prevalent under Jurgen Klopp.

Allardyce echoes Rooney’s calls for Salah to be punished Allardyce let loose about Salah’s actions on the No Tippy Tappy Football podcast as he grumbled: “If you’re gonna say it, say it when you’ve left.

Don’t say it when you’re still there, as if you’re bigger than the football club. If I were the owners, I would ban him. I’d go, ‘Who do you think you are?

You’re not bigger than this football club. '” “[Slot] has brought him back from the spat he had before and he’s still been crap this year. He’s been crap, for what he was and what he used to be and what he did last season, he just hasn’t done it [in this campaign].

He should be looking at himself and how bad he’s been this year. ” The 71-year-old added: “You can have that battle in the office. You can have a disagreement and shout and scream, but don’t make it public.
