AMR Sadio Mane

Mane has made the right flank at Liverpool his own throughout this preseason. All he’s done is allay the fears of a high priced flop as best he could.

It’s not a foregone conclusion obviously, if he sucks his first six matches of the Premier League then no one will care much for his preseason exploits, but up to this point, he’s looked fantastic.

His pace is electric. We all knew that, but I certainly couldn’t fully grasp it until watching him in a Liverpool kit. On top of that he has quality in his boots, he’s more than a runner. Mane has fit into Liverpool’s attack seamlessly.
