Premier League legend claims Sadio Mane Burnley outburst proves Mohamed Salah rift

Premier League legend Ian Wright thinks that the rift between Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah is just the beginning of a rivalry. During Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Burnley, Mane was furious at Salah as the Egyptian forward refused to pass him and later he erupted when Jurgen Klopp substituted him. "For him to get that angry in four games says that that’s deep. It’s too deep," Wright said on BBC Radio 5’s Monday Night Club. "He’s too angry, too quickly. We showed a couple yesterday [on Match of the Day] and that was just a couple! I think you could do it loads of games. I’ve seen it! I’ve watched games where maybe he could have squared him in. "As a striker, would I have squared him in? I hope I would have. He was so angry, he was furious! That was the 'I’ve had enough' moment. That is what we saw on that bench at Burnley. "He’s had enough of him in a position where he can get the tap in and he doesn’t do it. We saw a stat… he’s [Mane] created 43 chances for him, Salah has created only 25. That says to me that he’s tired it’s not being reciprocated. "What I saw – and Liverpool fans will phone in and text in because they care so deeply about it – but the fact is, for him to react that angrily, he’s at the end of his tether." However, Jurgen Klopp and Jordan Henderson have claimed that everything is sorted now between the two teammates. via Mirror.
