After Thierry Henry, it's Samir Nasri who weighs in on the Mohamed Salah saga at Liverpool.

Liverpool secured a 1-0 victory over Inter Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday night. This win came without Mohamed Salah, who was left in Liverpool following his much-discussed media outburst. Despite his absence, the Egyptian star was still on everyone's mind. Samir Nasri offered his analysis live on Canal+. Unlike Thierry Henry, Nasri has mixed feelings. On one hand, he believes the winger acted selfishly by putting his own situation ahead of the team. On the other, Nasri thinks the English club didn't handle things perfectly either. Arne Slot, he suggests, could have approached the matter differently.

🚨🗣️𝗡𝗘𝗪: Thierry Henry on Mohamed Salah's comments: "I had problems with Wenger, with Guardiola… Have you ever heard me talk about it publicly? NEVER. I protected the club."

"He's not the reason for Liverpool's struggles. Okay, his performance has clearly dipped, but Slot shouldn't forget everything Salah did last season. It's more about the change in system," the pundit declared. "I would have preferred Salah to speak out earlier and address the team's issues, to act like a leader, not just talk about his own case. For that, he should have had a one-on-one conversation with Slot.", Samir Nasri revealed.
