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.”

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.
