Are you aware of how Liverpool treated Mane after he won Salah and became AFCON champion? Are you aware that Liverpool never congratulated Mane, Salah is placed above every other player on the team, and his opinion is superior to the other players'.
Are you also aware that the entire Senegalese community wanted Mane to leave the club? And Mane confirmed it, saying he would do whatever his country wanted! Mane was not receiving the same amount of love and energy he was giving to the club.
Liverpool broke the bank to make Salah the highest-paid player in club history, but couldn't raise Mane's salary by a few percent?
Mane and Salah were never brothers; they were simply professional teammates on the field.
Bayer first tweet was to congratulate Mane for winning AFCON. A dip at Liverpool.
I mean, there's a difference between a team looking to purchase a player, and a team that already has that player congratulating. There's also a massive different between a PR post, and congratulating your player behind the scenes. I don't know if what you claim is true, since I don't follow Liverpool's social media, however I'm absolutely certain that Mane was congratulated behind the scenes, and not only that Salah was supported for losing in the final.
Mane was a brilliant player, and someone who I'm going to miss, and I can guarantee most other Liverpool fans will tell you the same, and they'll tell you they wanted what was best for Mane, since that's what he deserved. Sometimes fans turn on players when they leave, most didn't with Mane. Think about how Coutinho left, and compare it to Sadio.
I loved Mane, and honestly if it wasn't for Firminho, VVD, Matip he would probably be my favourite player. That's before Salah by the way. However, I know that signing Salah was absolutely more important for the club than renewing Sadio, despite me preferring Mane.
Mane was basically the first signing I remember saying we're getting somewhere. He was the very foundation of what we've built today, and for him to compete this long, and with some of the best forwards to have graced the game, he has been absolutely brilliant. The thing is we're Liverpool, we don't have bottomless pockets, and have always been a team that looks to replace any outgoing money. Hence why our transfer stats reflect this.
I'm not going to pretend Sadio, and Salah were the closest of players, but they were competitive team mates, and sure I suspect there was some rivalry in there. However, that rarely effected how they played. Anything suggested otherwise is simply media trying to mix the pot.
Personally, I'd listen to a number of players before Salah. Salah isn't a leader per say, and I don't think he's put above other players. I do think there's a slight difference of paying more for your best player. Honestly, despite me loving Salah, I think there's more important players; VVD, Alison, and Trent. Those are the very heart of our team, without one of those we lost creativity, we leak goals, and Salah despite being absolutely amazing he doesn't have as big of an impact, except when he's on amazing form like he was earlier in the season. He did save us a lot there. However, that usually isn't sustainable. He goes missing a lot with the opposition marking him out of the game.
. Although, it was quite obviously effecting his performance. Salah wasn't the same player that he was going into that tournament, which I think most can agree on. Whether it was a natural dip in form or because of the result, I don't know for sure.
