Richards then chimed in asking if the Reds mouthpiece sometimes oversteps the mark with his comments, to which Robertson replied: “No, I think he gets paid to do his job and I think all he’s doing, it’s part and parcel of football.
“He has to give his opinion, whether we agree with it or not sometimes is a different story!”
It came after Salah spoke to the media in a rare interview following their 3-2 win over Southampton, where the 32-year-old claimed he is more likely to leave than stay as the club haven’t offered an extension to his deal.

Carragher couldn’t hide his disappointment with the Egyptian’s comments and accused him of distracting the club in the most important week of their season.
“So the reason wouldn’t have offered a contract yet is because Mo Salah will turn it down. So they’re still in talks – I’m desperate for them to meet in the middle,” Carragher said on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football.
He added: “If he keeps putting comments out, his agent puts out cryptic messages, that is selfish. That is thinking about themselves and not the football club.”
“But I must say I am very disappointed with Salah. That interview yesterday, have got Real Madrid midweek and they’ve got at the weekend. That’s the story for right now.”
