Salah: Slot s first impression is that he wants to help me perform at the best level

May 17th Liverpool star Salah talked about coach Slott in an interview with Sky Sports this week.

Speaking of his first impression of Slot, Salah said, "I think he is quite harsh. Yes, harsh. If you want anything, he will ask you directly and constantly. It is really difficult to adapt at the beginning, but then you will get used to the way he communicates with you and what he expects of you, and then things get easier."

When asked about Slot's specific performance, Salah said, "He showed me some videos of me when I was warming up. I think it was during the warm-up session. I was the first to start warming up. Usually I would jog, but because other players were still in the national team and I had no national team tasks, I started preparing for the pre-season in advance with the young players. When I was the first to warm up, I was very slow and didn't do much. Then he showed me the video: 'Look, what is the second person doing? He saw you relax, and started to relax. Again Look at the third guy, the whole queue is walking like me. That's how you impact the team. If you keep doing this, the players won't take the warm-up seriously. ’ So, now I'll be the last warm-up, and I start thinking about how dynamic changes in the locker room are when the new coach arrives. ”

"To be honest, we have had a few candid conversations. He was very straightforward and showed me some clips and told me, 'In this way, we can win everything; in that way, we can't win much. I want you to play at the best level and hope you're going to get through the peak of your career under me. ’ I said, ’Okay, tell me what you need me to do, I'll do it because I'm very professional and I know what I can do. ’ Honestly, he didn't challenge me, I just felt that he respected me, and I told him, ’You're a very respectful person. "He really respects me and treats me differently. It's not a challenge, it's just showing me what he asks, and telling me: 'If you want to add or change something, communicate with me honestly at any time.'"

"I just feel that after the new coach arrives, we should give players space and express appreciation so that I can communicate with him anytime, what I want to improve, what I want the team to do for me, what I can do for the team. That's what I need. I think Slot is not like this for everyone, but for some people. This is also one of the key points. He shows you that you are a superstar here, maybe that's what I need at the time. You are a superstar here, you can always bring change, and I will treat you differently."
