Sorry going to be a bit controversial here but not impressed that he needs to go the Cup of Nations and potentially derail our title aspirations in Jan/Feb.
Mane is a massive cog in our wheel and letting him go play in this 2 bit competition which is ridiculously scheduled every 2 years should be challenged.
I don't understand why the super clubs have allowed FIFA to get away with this nonsense for far too long.
I know some of you think otherwise, but you will all be spewing if we drop needless points in that time period because of Mane's absence.
I'm just thinking that Henderson being suspended for a handful of games 3 seasons ago went a long way in costing us the title towards the end, and this has all the hallmarks of having the same ramifications.

All other English clubs pale into insignificance!"
