Even that was deflected in.

Xabi Alonso, pure class on and off the pitch. But overall I tend to agree with you.
I bet his breath smells like garlic. You can just tell.
Mane was one of the few forwards in the league who stayed on his feet too much. He could have won far more penalties if he didn't stagger on after being fouled. There is a reason forwards all dive and its because they both get rewarded for diving and punished for staying on their feet and riding challenges.
This. Huge respect for Mane for all the good work that he does.
Big mistake to sell Mane. Could've helped ease this guy into the side.
I think he will score goals but make the team worse. He’s so cumbersome, I’m surprised some members of the caf were so distraught when Liverpool signed him.
Portuguese posters are usually spot on with their assessments of players coming from their league

It was either sell him or keep an unhappy player for 12 more months and lose him for free the following summer.
in that case you just offer him a stupidly long contract at stupid money and never be rid of him as his performances slowly get worse and worse. for someone who has spent so long on here, you’ve really learnt nothing.
Why was he unhappy? Fix whatever the issue was and let him go on a free.
Mane for a year is worth more than you got for him.
Can obviously still come good but he doesn't look good so far, long may it continue.
They probably needed the cash for Nunez, ironically.
Mane wanted to leave and experience other clubs/leagues. He has given so much for Liverpool in the last 6 years and Liverpool did the right thing by giving him opportunity to leave, just like how Bayern did it for Thiago and plenty of other clubs did before for their players.
My impression was that it was about money and wanting to try something new. He apparently wanted to leave in summer 2021 but agreed to stay an extra year.
I believe that’s known as the “Phil Jones Clause”?
It was actually an accident. His back heel flick hit the defender and then bounced back off Nunez before going in. Looked good but wouldn’t have gone in if defender wasn’t there.
Sadio Mane. One of the nicest guys you could come across. Humble and down to earth. A portion of his salary goes to all the families in his hometown every month. Was secretly recorded a while back helping clean toilets in his local mosque in Liverpool. Not an ounce of ego about him.
Donkey.
Antony played better in one hour debut.
They had no real choice with Mane and made the right decision to get best fee they could as his mind was made up and it would have become toxic otherwise. No way Klopp would have let him leave had he not wanted to. I even think Klopp given a straight choice between the 2 would have sold Salah. Although Mane scored less goals, they seemed the more important goals like winners in tight games or equalisers.

Mane
Simple lifestyle.. Remembers his roots..
Mane was a right fecking cheat, dirty as feck too. Yeah, I'm sure he's lovely off the pitch but he was a right tosser on it.
Allison has never annoyed me in any way.
You couldn’t hate Litmanen when he signed for them
McManamamamia was alright. Patrick Burger was tasty.
I did.
Ooh Berger! Yes!
And Bruce! I mean, Kewell. God I wanted him at United... Then he turned to shit. Lucky escape I guess.
Bar the goal Anthony looked like hes won a competition.
He didn't, though, did he?
Can't even fill Origi's boots.
He was tired of being stalked by Melissa Reddy.
Lukaku 2.0.
100m should've spent that money on Fofana
should've spent that money on FofanaKewell was absolute class for his time at Leeds for sure.
or David Ngogs
Thank god it was only used from the Coutinho money.
