Liverpool’s win against Real Madrid was overshadowed by comments about Salah’s contract.
Before the game, there was a lot of talk about Salah. He had recently made comments about needing quick action on his contract, which surprised many. Carragher, a Liverpool legend, called Salah’s timing “selfish,” especially with important matches coming up for the team.
After the game, Robertson shared how the team reacted to Carragher’s comments during a fun interview on CBS Sports. The host, Kate Scott, asked him about the atmosphere in the dressing room after Carragher spoke out.
Robertson smiled and said, “He’s been getting a bit of stick in the changing room this week, that’s for sure! No, no comment… I think he gets paid to do his job, all of you do, it’s part and parcel of football. He has to give his opinion. Whether we agree with it or not is a different story!”
His light-hearted response made everyone laugh, including Carragher, who was also in the studio. This showed how the team can ignore outside noise and stay focused on their goals.
Despite the drama off the field, Liverpool played well and seemed unaffected. Goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo helped secure the win, showcasing the team’s strong defense and attacking play. However, Ibrahima Konaté’s injury late in the game raised concerns about their upcoming match against Manchester City.
While Carragher’s comments stirred some debate, Robertson’s reply indicated that the team remains united and focused on their performance.
