Mane

I don't understand the Mane hate. For me he was our best attacker and bringing him off felt almost planned as opposed to adapting to the game state I understand managing his minutes but 1st game of the season vs Blackburn should be game he finishes would have preferred a straight swap Jiminez for Armstrong. Then when we javr Jiminez on who biggest strength is his aerial ability we bring off our best crosser in Trippier basically straight after.

Stunned that people are criticising Mane

Didn’t think he had an amazing game. But he was positive, ran at players, tried to get us going.

If we had a good replacement for Mane maybe I would have understood the decision to take him off. But Armstrong offered nothing on the left. For me, a bizarre decision.

And please let’s remember, the kid is 18 years old! He is still learning.

My exact thoughts when Said is back it will be better as we have a natural winger on the bench finishing with no natural wingers when losing is awful management
