Sadio Mane’s future remains a hot topic of discussion as the forward continues to steal the headlines for Liverpool. He was the star of the show again on Tuesday night when the Reds came from behind to beat Aston Villa 2-1 at Villa Park, keeping their Premier League hopes alive.
The Senegal international scored the decisive second goal, brilliantly meeting and guiding a deft header past Emi Martinez midway through the second half. His performance on the night led to Jurgen Klopp labelling him a “machine” in his post-match press conference.
“He is a machine, I told him after the game. Massive player, physicality, technique and mentally good in those important moments when everyone has a few yards in the legs. Top goal, and yeah, fantastic player. “
