The Egyptian, who confirmed in March that he will leave Liverpool at the end of the season, appeared to direct criticism at both the club and manager Arne Slot in a strongly worded online statement after the loss.
Jones drew attention after responding to Salah’s post with a clapping emoji, while fellow Liverpool player Hugo Ekitike added a handshake emoji. Carragher, however, believes the midfielder should have avoided getting involved publicly.
Speaking on The Overlap Stick to Football podcast, the former Liverpool defender questioned Jones’ decision to react to the post.
"I think Curtis Jones commented on it didn’t he? Put like a clapping emoji. I thought that was a bit strange. I thought Jesus, 'This is why we don't play heavy metal football because of some players a little bit like Curtis Jones in the squad',” Carragher said.
"He takes six touches on the ball before he passes it, I thought, 'Steady on son, stay out of that one'. Let Salah do whatever he wants to do. He's leaving. I'm not that too bothered really and maybe they all look up to Mo Salah… thought it was daft for all of them to do."
