Sadio Mane
At no point this season has it seemed like Liverpool have had all their best players available. A “back injury” for Coutinho, a suspension and a pulled hamstring for Mane and a lengthy injury to Lallana meant that players in the starting XI were moved around to accommodate for the missing names. The biggest area […]
There were a number of stellar performances from Liverpool at the London Stadium on Saturday as Jurgen Klopp’s side dispatched West Ham 4-1, but none more so than a certain Egyptian forward. Mohamed Salah delivered another two goals for The Reds, showing a composed, cool head in front of goal to cap off an impressive […]
Is there a set of football fans who crave a league title quite like Liverpool fans? I’m sure there are supporters of other clubs out there who feel similarly desperate – Napoli’s last triumph also came way back in 1990, for example – but it is almost hard to put into words what it would […]

The inclusion of Mané was the big shock of the afternoon since even the manager had […]
