    All round a better player than mo, lacks his finishing skills tho, when manes 1 on 1 there's doubt, not with salah tbh.

    Manes against this lot was my favourite of his I think.

    Goal scorers always get the headlines. Players like Mane who keep 3 of the opposition occupied while the goal scorer has space to do his thing are often overlooked.

    Salah peaked in the previous season, whereas Mane has continued to improve imo. His pace and directness is unplayable at times.

    Yeh when he's in that mood it's almost unstoppable.

    Tbh I don't see it being an issue, Salah, Werner, Mane and firminho, we've basically played the front 3 for 3 years straight and have been fortunate that we've managed them well enough to stay fit during most of that time. That's not including afcons and Olympics either.

    I do see Origi being sold off though, if Werner does come in.

    Should be able to get 40m for him, just turned 25.

    Yeah, looked a good decision for about three games.

    And that was that.

    If I remember rightly you weren't too keen on him when linked before going to Liverpool? Or was it your in laws who didn't rate him?


    Superb footballer, probably the best attacking player I've seen play for us.

    Just did a quick check. It looks like I wasn't impressed with his inability to stay on his feet when another player got anywhere near him!

    Tbf most Saints fans thought he was **** the first 6 months he was here. Although most football fans are pretty clueless, impatient and fickle
