Liverpool fans admitted on social media, after the team lost 2-1 to Manchester United on Monday, that the “Reds” missed Sadio Mane, as some of them saw that the Egyptian star Mohamed Salah was benefiting from the presence of his Senegalese colleague before the latter’s departure to Bayern Munich last month.
Liverpool lost the Manchester United match on Monday, with goals from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford, against a goal by Mohamed Salah, who became Liverpool’s second historical scorer in the English Premier League.
Adeleke Polanelli wrote on Twitter: “Sadio Mane is shining in Germany, away from Salah, but the same cannot be said about the Egyptian in Liverpool.
Another pointed out: When do we have to admit that Sadio Mane was carrying the entire Liverpool and not Mohamed Salah?
Albert Nat Hyde believes that dispensing with Mane in favor of Bayern Munich is one of the biggest mistakes that Liverpool have made.
While another believes that Klopp underestimated Mane’s influence on Liverpool when he agreed to his departure, while the Senegalese move to Bayern revealed many problems in the team.
One of the Liverpool fans criticized Salah’s level in the big match, and wrote: The Dutchman, Malacia, Salah’s size in the match, Mane was the important piece in the attack, which is what the team is losing now.
And former English international Darren Bent, Tottenham player, wrote: Liverpool suffers from various injuries, but at the same time it is missing Sadio Mane.
The defeat put Liverpool in 16th place with only two points after 3 rounds of the English Premier League competition, while Mane is currently shining in Germany after scoring two goals in Bayern Munich’s victory over Bochum on Sunday in the German League.
