Imagine your own team is back in top form against an incredibly stable 0: 1 defensive opponent and the coach replaces the league’s top scorer after one hour; This is exactly what happened in the Premier League coup between Liverpool FC Chelsea on Thursday night.
When the score was 0: 1 from Liverpool’s point of view, LFC manager Jürgen Klopp knocked superstar Mohamed Salah off the field in the 62nd minute. The Egyptian tops the Premier League scorers list with 17 goals ahead of Bruno Fernandes (15 / Manchester United) and Harry Kane (14 / Tottenham Hotspur).
Salah was anything but happy with the substitution and then slowly trotted to the sidelines with some lack of understanding. Salah was last taken off the field in early September 2017.
The attacker headed straight for the bench with Klopp without applauding, where camera footage showed him shaking his head in frustration even minutes after his replacement.
LFC coach Jürgen Klopp commented after the game in Sky about the game and also about Salah’s replacement. “It seems like Mo had suffered a bit today. He has played a lot of games recently, ”Klopp said, explaining his decision.

Salah’s advisor makes a hint
The action also received little enthusiasm from Salah’s adviser: After the replacement, Ramy Abbas Issa posted a tweet with only one character: a period.
The rumor, of course, immediately broke out: What does the point mean? Could it be the end of Salah’s time in Liverpool?
The fact is: Salah’s contract with the Reds runs until 2023, with a market value of 120 million (transfermarkt.at), the 28-year-old would be anything but a bargain. The media recently repeatedly reported on Salah’s desire to play for Real Madrid or FC Barcelona in Spain.
