Thought he was very important in stopping Porto getting at Trent when he moved over to the right. He is such a great all round player- can we clone him this summer?

Sadio Manéthal with the open goal miss though.

In fairness he took a couple of bumps, was facing away from goal and was worried by the defender heading back so think went for extra power. No harm done. :D

When the chips are down, when the stakes are at their highest you can bank on Sadio to deliver. Scored the equaliser in the CL final and who knows what might have happened if we'd held on for a little longer at 2-1.

Yeah he always seems to score first. Brilliant footballer, and i love his arrogance.


Arrogance???? Mane?

You do not know him well if you think he is arrogant. He goes to his local mosque in a normal car as to not to stand out and to be apart of the community. He then cleans the toilets of that mosque by way of humility and respect for others and that he does not see himself as above the other worshippers.

He may be confident in his ability but he is not arrogant. Methinks you have mistaken confidence for arrogance. There is a huge difference.

Not really, only of late. This was the game when in which he overtook Salah in that department:
...
Salah - 23 goals [9 assists]
Mane - 22 goals [2 assist]
...snip

1st goal in match

Mane - 11 goals
Salah - 10 goals

Why is Sterling the other favourite along with Van Dijk for the PFA player of the year when Mane is playing so well?

Probably because Mane only really got going at this level from the turn of the year, whereas the other two have been more consistent throughout.

Sterling is creating goals more frequently. He has 11 assists in the league whereas Mane only has 2.

Sterling has 9 assists in the league, not 11. Aguero only has one less with 8 and has scored two more than Sterling. Aguero doesn't get much credit for what he does, but certainly on paper his stats there edge Sterling's. I think we all know that the racism thing is what has pushed Sterling closer to the front of the queue. He's also nominated for young player of the year so it'll probably be given to him (despite the fact that he turns 25 this year - "young") with VVD getting the main accolade because everyone knows his name has been on it for months.

His heading has come on leaps and bounds this season.

He should have had a Hat Trick of headers today.
