Personally I think Mane has done ok this season. Certainly not on a par with his last one but up to this point he has 10 goals and 7 assists I think which is a decent return from a wide player which effectively he is. Also has to be taking into account his time out through injury.
He was a big player for us last year as we had done very little in the market. Everyone was loving him like he was a superstar much better than he actually is as well. His tally last season was only 13 goals and 5 assists. The year before it was 11 and 6. Those are good figures from a wideman but considering the chances we create it should be better but again the lad doesn't have that strikers instinct because he isn't one.
This season he has done well imo and well worth his starting berth with the squad we have. He has had some woeful misses but nonetheless picks himself up and goes again, His running is a big part of our pressing and his pace always has defenders scared even if he isn't on form.
I think he is a fairly consistent player from season to season and with many more years still to go I think he will put in one or two sure to eclipse the impact he had on his debut.
Good post ,I think Mane is an integral part of what makes our attack such an ominous threat ,like you've stated above he picks himself up dusts himself off after every miss and ensures his next opportunity finds the net ,he's a nightmare for defenders because his play is unpredictable, he twists and turns to find the space to use his blistering speed and over those few yards he is the quickest out of our three, which leaves defenders faced with the threat of his pace constantly forced into playing on the back foot.

He's part of one of the best attacks in European if not world football so he must be doing something right.

Sadio will increase his tally next season im sure.
He does over do it sometimes that is why he makes errors but like Redbeer said he does get on with it and blends back into the mix.
He is an important cog to Klopps attack but i feel we will need a similar cog next season to rotate with Sadio and Salah.
Next season we will try to mount a title challenge and also will defend our champions league crown

He's a very important cog to our front three. His link up play is sublime and it's no coincidence that things stop working when we replace him with the likes of Ings or Solanke. He's vital to our success and can't believe some were saying he should be sold after one poor game.

His weaknesses are the fact that he can be selfish, not passing to players in a better position. Also his finishing could do with practising on the training ground. He squandered three good chances versus Roma the other night, fortunately it didn't cost us dearly.
Firmino and Salah are the stand out players for me.

The problem I find with Mané is that he plays with his head down. Never looks up or has any situational awareness. The sitter he missed against Roma a point in case : head up,you see the keeper committing himself, you dink it over him. Instead he went for power. Other games this season he has a player waiting for a cut back for a simple tap in and he goes for glory. I think he's even lost a yard of pace, TBH.
Needs to be a bit more clever methinks

I don’t understand some of the criticism he gets sometimes. Yes he’s a bit selfish but with his goal scoring record that can be excused. He has a great attitude as well and works his ***** off.

Missed him today big time, anytime we rest one of the front 3 we just don't look the same. Ings is a honest trier but he just hasn't got that X factor that the other lads have got.

So by the looks of it our attack will be.
Firmino
Shaqiri Salah
Mane
I still would've preferred Fekir and let Shaq rotate with Mane.

I don't think Mane getting the number 10 jersey means he will be changing position.
