Liverpool star Mohamed Salah was at the centre of an angry outburst from team-mate Sadio Mane on Saturday night.

Mane was taken off with five minutes to go and was seen to be furious as he took his place on the bench.

But it emerged that it was not his substitution that enraged him – but a pass that Salah failed to make to him late in the 3-0 win over Burnley that left Liverpool with the only 100 per cent record in the Premier League.

‘Was it about a pass?’ said manager Jurgen Klopp after the match. ‘Yes …. But.’

He then expanded on his answer by saying: ‘Everything is fine. There was a situation in the game he was not happy about.’

Mane was said to have been provoked by Salah’s option to try a trick while in possession instead of passing to him. But Klopp insisted that the issue had been sorted.

‘We are off for a couple of weeks now – and that is perhaps a good moment to do it!’ 

Mane could be seen shouting on the bench after coming off with six minutes remaining.
