Spotted: Alternate angle of Salah vs Klopp spat shows manager threatening to send him back to the bench

Mo Salah seemed to have a spat with Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp when being subbed on in the Reds' 2-2 draw with West Ham.

Much was made of the incident as Salah seemed to be annoyed by the fact that Liverpool conceded just as he was about to come on.

A second angle of the incident now shows Klopp offering his hand to Salah before coming on and the latter being a little delayed in returning the gesture.

Klopp seems visibly irked by Salah's body language and points to the bench, a gesture fans interpreted as the boss threatening to send him back to the bench.

According to some fans, Salah had been warming up for up to 30 minutes before he was finally subbed on, which made him irate with his boss.

Some believe Salah was in the right, while other says it was wrong of him to react to Klopp in that way.

PartedBeard: "They shook hands. Hugs are not part of the job description and not giving one shouldn’t lead to threatening Mo back to the bench. I think this is when Mo exploded. Mo is being honest: I’m not happy, I will do my job, but don’t expect a hug because you want one."

Krish: "Doing this to the guy who believed in you when not many did is crazy when all he asked for was a hug."

Chalang: "Obviously Klopp threatened Salah to send him back to the bench because he didn't embrace him, I like Klopp but this is disrespect not only to Mo but also to any other player, they are professionals not your kids playing in the garden."

Kobserving: "His is exactly how a manager who god rid of all the people that is their job to make him accountable would behave like. To make salah warm up from the 30th min then sub him in for the last 12 min and then threaten him to back to the bench is both unprofessional and petty."

Superszbo: "They don’t deserve Klopp i hope Slot gives them a slap instead of a hug."
