Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has once again highlighted just how dedicated Mohamed Salah is, calling the forward “a top professional.” Slot’s comments come ahead of Salah’s departure to represent Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations, which begins later this month. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 INTRO 00:21 Slot on rotation: FLorian has missed out one and a ahlf, two weeks of training For him to play so many minutes was already a good thing. 1:15 Slot on Salah: "Of course a player is not happy if he's not starting but he was very supportive of his teammates. He's a top professional." 2:30 Arne Slot: Mo Salah will go to AFCON on December 15th. 3:12 On Sunderland; A big compliment for their manager as they brought in a lot of good players. I saw the game Chelsea v Arsenal on way home, two teams working so hard and fighting. 4:27 Slot on AFCON: The way we have worked is that there's a communication between all three - the player, the club and country. That's nothing new. But FIFA have said December 15 is last day player has to be released. 5:56 Fitness on Isak Wirtz and Gomez: I don't think they can play three times 90 in a week. Now I have to wait to see if they can be involved from the start on Wednesday. All three can feature in all the three games. 7:48 Slot on being most abused coach online: Maybe I expected a bit more after the Forest game! Abuse is never a good thing. But I am not a social media person but I'm not stupid, I'm aware of it. 9:20 Slot on Joe Gomez: It's a skillset he has. When he's not been playing he can come in and perform straight away. 10:54 Anfield Crowd: It's important to start a game well even without scoring a goal. We have to try that better than recently because recently apart from West Ham we've conceded. 12:10 Slot on fitness if Bradley and Frimpong Conor got into a team training session yesterday for the first time. Not everything 100% yet so we have to manage that so don't get hopes up too soon. We expect the same with Jeremie next week END @HaytersTV – Football Up Close.
