Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah told waiting reporters he couldn't discuss today's blow-up with manager Jurgen Klopp due to potential repercussions.

Salah was dropped for the 2-2 draw at West Ham and came on late in the second-half.

Salah and Klopp had a heated discussion on the sidelines before he stepped onto the field.

After the match, journalists stood in the mixed zone and awaited player interviews and Salah rushed past the waiting press and saying: "If I say anything today, there will be a fire."

"Fire?" asked a journalist.

"Yes, of course," replied Salah, before briskly moving on.
