Gary Lineker has interesting theory on row between Jurgen Klopp and Mo Salah

Gary Lineker has come up with an interesting theory on the row between Jurgen Klopp and Mohamed Salah.

Klopp and Salah were involved in an explosive clash in Liverpool's 2-2 draw with West Ham United on Saturday.

New footage shows what Salah did at full-time which could anger Liverpool fans further.

Naturally, the argument between Klopp and Salah was discussed on Match of the Day as Lineker and Alan Shearer weighed in.

Lineker appeared to blame the German boss' impending departure, saying: "That’s what happens when someone announces they’re going to leave before the end of the season."

As for Shearer, he jumped to the defence of Salah, siding with the Liverpool superstar in his spat with Klopp.

"We don't know what Klopp has said to him there. He's said something that's riled him," he explained.

"He's obviously got the right hump with being left out and probably rightly so, even though hasn't hit the heights that Mo Salah has done over the years. He's been an unbelievable player.

"He ignores Jurgen [Klopp], he gives the Liverpool fans a little round of applause and goes straight down the tunnel.

"But we're guessing as to what Jurgen said to him. I understand that if Mo has the right hump because the amount of times he's been Liverpool's superstar and their saviour.

"He's got 17 goals in 25 league starts. Anyone else you'd look at that and think 'unbelievable'. It's a shame it's going to end like that because of what Klopp's done and what Salah's done."

Salah 😠 Klopp
Lineker 😠 Wright❓

Salah is enjoying yet another prolific campaign, having scored an impressive 24 goals across all competitions.

But he was unable to inspire Liverpool to victory when he came on against West Ham.

The Reds occupy third place in the table and are now two points behind league leaders Arsenal.
