Jamie Carragher has had his say on the touchline row between Mohamed Salah and Jurgen Klopp.
On Saturday, Liverpool travelled to the London Stadium to take on West Ham United as they looked to secure a top four finish after their title hopes went up in smoke against Everton in midweek.
The visitors went behind in the 43rd minute with Jarrod Bowen heading past Alisson Becker.

In the second half, Liverpool came out fighting as Andy Robertson and an own goal from Alphonse Areola made it 2-1 to Klopp’s men.
However, Liverpool’s defensive fragility was on show once again as Michail Antonio equalised in the 77th minute.
Just before the 80th-minute mark, Salah and Klopp were seen arguing on the touchline before the Egyptian was sent on.

Darwin Nunez eventually came over and pushed Salah away to calm the situation.
After the match, former Liverpool defender Carragher had his say on the incident.
He wrote on social media: “The only reason a manager would be unhappy in this situation, is the player took too long to be ready to come on.”
Reacting to the incident, former Liverpool striker Peter Crouch said on TNT Sports: “It didn't look good, I don't think it looks good for the club. Mo Salah is a player who has started the majority of games for Liverpool and he will be fuming to be on the bench.

“But no-one likes to see this between a manager and a key player.”
Fellow pundit Ally McCoist added: “You see Salah coming back to have another bite and one of his team-mates looks like he has to intervene - that stuff should be for behind closed doors.
“Yeah, I do [think Salah will leave]. He has been one of the best players we have seen in this league, nothing short of fantastic for Liverpool, but his form has dipped and it looks to me like he might be moving. It might suit both parties - suit Salah to move on and Liverpool to reinvest the money they get for him.”
