Jamie Carragher has revealed Sadio Mane is his favourite Liverpool player and suggested he prefers the winger to Mohamed Salah because of his tireless efforts for the team.
Mane was the hero as the Reds clinched a narrow 2-1 win over Aston Villa on Tuesday night to move level on points with Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title. The Senegalese headed home from Luis Diaz’s cross midway through the second half to seal three crucial points as Salah watched on from the bench.
The Egyptian may have topped the goalscoring and assists charts in the Premier League this season with 22 goals and 13 assists, which have been crucial to the Reds’ title chase. But Carragher, speaking after Liverpool ’s victory, outlined why he favours Mane as a Liverpool fan - and claimed he is every bit as important as Salah.
