Alan Shearer sides with Mo Salah over touchline spat with boss Jurgen Klopp and says he 'understands' why the Liverpool forward snapped at his manager during 2-2 draw with West Ham

Alan Shearer has come to the defence of Mohamed Salah, after the Liverpool's bizarre touchline row with manager Jurgen Klopp.

The Reds forward was involved in a heated exchange with his manager during the 2-2 draw with West Ham on Saturday.

Salah was left on the bench for the trip for the London Stadium, but upon being introduced to the game by the German, let his frustration boil over in the direction of Klopp.

Klopp seemed to say something to the Egyptian that provoked an angry reaction, and it led to Salah continually waving his arms about, pointing to the pitch and then pointing at his manager.
