Jurgen Klopp has praised Reds number 10 Sadio Mane, joking that there is one thing he can fault about the Senegalese.
Klopp said to reporters at his pre-Watford press conference, as reported in the Liverpool Echo: “Sometimes he’s not aware of [how good he is.]!
“He’s in the best years of his career. It’s all good so far.
“I’m really happy about the fact he’s signed this contract. If a player is in a very good moment in his career and you can extend his contract it’s a statement.”

It really is great news that Mane signed his new deal – keeping the front three together until 2023 is massive.
There have been periods during his time at the club when his confidence has looked below-par, but his goal record suggests that shouldn’t be the case. He’s about the enter the peak of his career, and we can’t wait to keep watching him play.
