Former Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has warned that Mohamed Salah is "destroying his legacy" at Liverpool after the Egyptian forward's recent public outburst. Salah, 33, has been struggling to regain form and has been involved in a row with manager Arne Slot over issues related to team selection.
According to Rooney, Salah needs to either sort out his differences with Slot or leave Liverpool. The former England forward believes that Slot must now show his authority and not involve Salah in key matches after the Egyptian's comments were seen as a challenge to his authority.
Rooney thinks that Salah has gone about things the wrong way, saying he doesn't have to fight for his place because he's already earned it. He also believes that Salah's comments were disrespectful to his team-mates, manager, and fans.
The situation at Liverpool is becoming increasingly tense, with the club sitting ninth in the Premier League table after winning just seven of their opening 15 games. Salah has scored four times in 13 top-flight appearances this season.
It remains to be seen how things will unfold for Salah at Anfield, but one thing is clear: his legacy is under threat if he doesn't sort out his issues with Slot and the club's fans are not happy about it.

just read that Wayne Rooney thinks Mohamed Salah needs to either calm down or ship out lol, I mean, I get where he's coming from but can't we all just get along? 
meanwhile rooney's still stuck in his "i'm the real deal" phase 
gotta respect the guy's passion but this whole situation is getting outta hand 
Salah's got more than enough goals to prove himself 
and btw 9th in the league isnt exactly a disaster mode 
Salah's been going through a rough patch, I get it, but to blame the manager and his teammates? Not cool, mate. And Rooney's right, Salah should be grateful for the opportunities he's having at Liverpool - he doesn't have to fight for his place because of all the amazing things he's done for the club already! 
, i mean seriously like rooney's a legend and all but come on if u got issues w/ ur manager why dont u just talk 2 him like a normal person? Salah's been having a tough season and its easy 2 blame the manager but lets not forget hes a pro now he shouldnt be acting like a kid again 
. He's not a kid anymore, 33 and still expecting special treatment 
. Rooney might be right, if he can't get along with the gaffer or leave, then maybe it's time for Salah to move on 
️. The fans are already frustrated with the team's performance, no need for Salah's tantrums 
.
. And now he's disrespecting everyone around him, including his fans? Unbelievable 
. I think Rooney has a point about Slot needing to show some authority, but at the same time, Salah needs to man up and deal with his own issues instead of blaming others 
- I mean, come on, he's 33, can't he just take some advice from an old pro like Wayne Rooney? 
The situation at Liverpool is getting pretty awkward, and if Salah doesn't get his head back in the game (pun intended), it could be a long season for the Reds. Maybe he should just stick to scoring goals instead of trying to stir up drama, you know? 
The fans are already having a rough time with Liverpool sitting 9th in the league... poor guys!
, so I think everyone's watching this situation closely 
... Salah needs to sort his head out and remember why he signed with Liverpool in the first place - for the love of the game 
! If not, it could damage his legacy forever 
...
. And honestly, if he can't handle being benched, maybe he shouldn't be playing 90 minutes every week? I get that he wants to prove himself but there's a line between demanding respect and being ungrateful 
it's like they're both playing a game of cat & mouse here
