Mo Salah got Liverpool fans talking about a potential exit after his frank assessment of a "devastating" Anfield season. Jurgen Klopp's team have officially missed out on the Champions League for only the second time of the German's tenure after Manchester United's win over Chelsea put the top four out of reach.
It has been their worst full season since Klopp arrived with only an impressive recent run - undefeated in 10 and having won seven on the spin before their draw with Aston Villa on Saturday - sparing their blushes.
Having come within two games of an historic Quadruple last season, they will suffer the relative indignity of Europa League football in 2023/24 as they look to bounce back.
But could they be doing it without their goalscoring talisman on the right wing? Despite Liverpool's struggles, Salah has racked up 30 goals and 15 assists and took to social media to apologise to fans for their failure to qualify for the top UEFA competition.
