He was pretty good today. Decision making seemed to get worse near the end of the game, either due to tiredness of desperation to push for a win.
I'd like to think we have a higher bar set than being better than Origi though.
He terrorizes defenses but can't score to save his life. Is he good enough at setting up others that we think he can lay it on for Mo or Jota? That's the question because he just doesn't have the composure to finish.
Can't disagree with anything said here. Just feel looking at Mane and how poor he has been the last couple seasons or so that Adama Traoré would be a better option than Mane at present. worring thing for me with Mane He seems to have lost his ability to ghost pass players, and his passing seems to be no where near his fellow team mates when trying to lay the ball off. In fairness that can be laid at the feet of most of our players (No pun intented)
Can't see Jota blasting pass players,Neither Eillot,Jones nor the 15min man AOC; beside I feel that Jota is better through the middle of the three.
Also can you imagine bring on someone with that among of raw pace and the strengh to go with it, with tweny mins to go in a game?
Just thing that it would be worth considering
EDIT:- He is at time unplayable, and untouchable with his speed from the start of a game. Can yo inmagine that speed vs tired or tiring legs..?
The CL final vs Real... Before Sergio Ramos took out Mo. The where so frightened of Salah's pace that Marcelo hardly go into our half unless Salah was there. With in minutes of Salah leave the pitch he (Marcelo) was running rampant and creating all manner of chances down the line... Imagine players like Des Walker (City) Reece James(Chelsea) Wan Bissaka (Utd),
CL teams Like Real, Milan's, Bayern trying to cope with that pace, having the FB pinned back becuase their concerns about his pace..?
