These Liverpool fans discussed the latest Sadio Mane injury update ahead of their clash against West Ham United.
When Jurgen Klopp sat down and spoke during his press conference, the German manager stated: “Sadio will not be involved for West Ham and probably not for Southampton.” However, Mane should be fine to return after the Southampton match.
James Pearce relayed the news via his official Twitter account.
Mane has been averaging a WhoScored rating of 7.51/10 in the Premier League, so he’ll definitely be missed.
Here are some of the comments from the Liverpool fans on Twitter:
Great news but it is also good for Mane to get a rest and stoke them fires up for the final onslaught

Klopp has also stated that Sadio Mane’s injury is a small muscle tear and that the Reds are lucky that it wasn’t too serious (Liverpool FC).
What will the West Ham v Liverpool result be?
Liverpool win
Draw
West Ham win
So far this season, the winger has managed to score 11 goals in 22 Premier League appearances, so Klopp will be keen to get Mane back as soon as possible (WhoScored).
Amazing. He didn’t get any rest since the start of 18/19 season.

Best news ever, he’s our best player this season. Others are important too but can’t have Mane miss too many games.

What Do We Think?
Of course, losing Mane potentially for the next two games isn’t the end of the world as the Reds are already in good shape in the league, but they’d definitely rather have him in their ranks.
