Liverpool manager Klopp hails Mane after Watford goal

Liverpool walked to an easy win last night versus Chelsea.

The Reds were always the dominant force throughout the match and the little threat Chelsea offered through Timo Werner last night was cancelled out by the defensive brilliance of Fabinho who was playing as a makeshift centre back last night.

On the other end, it was two goals from Sadio Mane that sealed the three points for Liverpool. Here is what Klopp had to say:

“If Sadio wouldn’t have scored two goals, I think Fab would be a proper contender for man of the match,” the Liverpool manager told a news conference.

“I loved his performance, he played outstanding. He helped us a lot with the ball and in defending as well, so yes, a proper performance.”

“It says everything about that and it says everything about the team as well. I love that because we have these situations quite a lot – that we chase the goalie,” he said.

“I think in the first half Sadio was really close to blocking it there already but you just have to do it. I love it when we get rewards for these kinds of situations.

“The first goal was a nice piece of football, everybody involved pretty much. [Roberto] Firmino cross and then Sadio comes in front of his man, so it’s really difficult to defend. Good goal and gave the game the right direction. That’s exactly what we have to show all the time, that’s what we wanted to show today.

“I saw us today, I saw us playing football today and I’m completely fine with that. I loved it.”
