It’ll be interesting, for sure - his goals return exploded last season for Porto - from bagging 6 in each of the previous 2 seasons - he jumped to 14 in 18 games.
Hopefully that’s not a one-off and more of a sign he’s starting to hit his prime years.
His return of 4 in 13 League games suggests a return of 12-15 - Mane’s average in the league was 15 over his time at Liverpool.
It’s more about whether Jota can keep up his goalscoring record having missed pre-season and not guaranteed to start; or whether Nunez starts banging them in.
Diaz is probably, after Salah, the forward I’m least worried about.
Wednesday
Thanks for posting. These are always an absorbing watch. Interesting to see Thiago very much assuming a kind of "senior pro" role in the earlier part of the video.
Wednesday 7pm vs RB Salzburg
Then Charity Shield on Sat (5pm) with rest of squad warming up with a game against Strasbourg on Sunday evening (7.30 pm)
That’ll be the Red Bull & inhaler getting him high.
Mo’s going to score a hattrick at least once in his first ten games. He looks absolutely raring to go.
It is because Mane has gone, isn't it? All of his charitable do-goodery, his toilet cleaning down the local mosque and such like was shaming Mo.
Don't forget losing the Afcon and world cup qualifier.
I am sure the new contract being settled has put in a different frame of mind.
Indeed. I don't think he ever actually wanted to leave so I'm betting he's mightily chuffed to have reached agreement on his new deal.
Time for some social .. Ibou enjoying himself 😀
Edit ;
Ibrahima Konate couldn’t quite get over the quality of one Liverpool staff member’s rendition of Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice in a karaoke session during the Reds’ Austrian training camp.
The Frenchman was spotted actively cheering with the defender evidently impressed by the efforts on show whilst the squad enjoyed a team bonding session.
The karaoke has been a tradition under Jurgen Klopp in pre-season to integrate new staff and players and we’ll be greatly looking forward to seeing what the likes of Darwin Nunez and Co. come up with.

Christ, Milners starting to show his age.
Costas has competition in the Happy Loony stakes then. 😀
Not sure if this was posted, but Mo looks different class compared to our other attackers judging from this high-intensity drill - absolutely lethal. Also Joe Gomez is a monster 1 on 1 defender - maybe he’ll back to his best form this season.

I've watched it a couple of times to compare the four attacking players. Mo's movement is decisive and quick. He doesn't mess around going this way and that. And he gets the defender to face him up before he gets the ball, so the slower player struggles changing direction. And when he receives the ball it's misdirected from where the defender thought he would go. Cool finishing, nothing fancy.
Lethal. You see why defenders hate playing him.
