clutch or somthing else?

my s4 t2 clutch pedal got stuck to the floor and i couldnt put it in any other gear except 3rd and 4th. i recently replaced the slave cylinder and it allows me to drive it, but it still sticks right when its almost completely out and sum times its hard to put it in to 1st. should i also replace the master too, or is it sumthin else, ive tried to search but it comes up with nothing. i also cant break the tires loose in any gear even form a stop. it used to chrip in to 4th

When the clutch master cylinder piston leaks, the fluid runs down the inside of the fire wall and gets soaked up in the carpet padding.
If you can't see the leak, pull the master.

AFAIK the clutch is self-bleeding. Replace your master and slave cylinders.

Replace the master. Pressure is bleeding through the seal back into the reservoir and there's not enough pressure to push the pedal back. Replace the master.
