Jamie Carragher called out Mo Salah once again after the Egyptian fired Liverpool to a 2-0 win over Manchester City on Sunday.
Salah set up the opener with an exquisite pass for Cody Gakpo before adding the second from the spot in the second half, making amends for his Real Madrid miss after Luis Diaz was fouled by Stefan Ortega-Moreno.
Liverpool moved nine points clear of second-placed Arsenal with the win, while Salah now has 13 goals in all competitions for Arne Slot's side.
But after the game, Carragher commented on his decision go public about his contract situation. The former Reds defender was critical of Salah after the former Chelsea man spoke to the press in the mixed zone at Southampton to reveal he hasn't received a contract offer and is "probably more out than in" at the moment.

Carragher said he was "disappointed" by Salah's comments and branded him "selfish". After the City triumph, Carragher was raving about Virgil van Dijk's display on social media - prompting one fan to reply that he "remembered" he supported Liverpool.
The Sky Sports pundit then explained his issue with the way Salah has spoken about his contract in a different way to Van Dijk, who has constantly batted questions away.
Carragher wrote: "Not at all, I’d just like Mo to answer questions on his contract the way VVD does! Nothing to report, you’ll be the first to know when there is!!!".

After Andy Robertson admitted Carragher was "getting a bit of stick in the changing room this week" during an interview with CBS Sports following the win over Real, Salah himself made his feelings clear on Carragher on Sunday.
Having claimed the Man of the Match award, Salah had a little dig at Carragher after Van Dijk said he was "surprised" Carragher wouldn't select him as the Man of the Match, award, replying: "Ah no, he [Carragher] wouldn't give it to me. Never. He wouldn't! I don't want to talk about this!".
Salah's contract is due to expire in the summer and a new report claims Paris Saint-Germain have been in talks about signing him on a free.
