After we played Liverpool this season Poch said: “We need a player that is more direct, a player that is more aggressive and offensive. We have a player like Eriksen or Son or Lamela that are players who like to play into feet. Some characteristics like that we see today from Liverpool. Mane, this type of player that can be offensive.”

I agree we do need a player LIKE Mane.. For me he is great on his day but those days are not often enough.. he also throws himself about and loves a dive.. My comment was, I wouldn't want him at Spurs, and I stick by that.. if others would like him then that's fine but not for me..
Exactly, why would we want someone who would come in on more than the rest of our settled players and upset the team spirit.. £150k a week is nonesense.
Another result that we shouldn't really give a fuck about. We keep attending to our own affairs then we can't control other results. Couldn't give a shit if one set of scousers kick lumps out of another set of Scousers for 98 minutes of otherwise dull football. New philosophy here. Tend to our own results & worry about our performances. Not everybody else's. I love football generally but I am stopping looking at tables, permutations & goal differences as best I can from now on.
16 goals and 4 assists...
16 goals and 4 assists in 24 games is fantastic for an attacking midfielder.
Well that result surely pisses in my coffee
We have to accept that if Liverpool -or any of the 4 suspects wanted a player we wanted - that 9/10 x they would choose Liverpool
Whether it be the wages or the idea that they may win more, which is understandable.
Mane would never have been at Southampton if we would have wanted him.
We are in a difficult situation as break the wage structure and it gets out of control.
Unfortunately Liverpool have globa appeal and more money from it. The type of fans where 3 brother support Liverpool Man U and Woolwich from oldest to youngest.
I am afraid the times of paying unsustainable wages -buying them houses, cars for the dads and sun beds for their sister are gone.
The wage bill has to be controlled , especially now. we pay over 50% of our total income (52%) on wages, 4&3% behind Liverpool and Woolwich.
To match them we''d probably have to spend at least 70% as Liverpool earn around £100m more than us and Woolwich just under £155m more.
It's not sustainable.
Otherwise Liverpool would have been spending more than 56%

Prior to that he went 20 games without a goal making him inconsistent..
False statement.
In the league for Southampton he went 20 games without a goal..from Nov 1st 2015 to March 20th 2016.. that'll be the inconsistency I referred to..
Liverpool are complete garbage.
Also what reinforcements Kloppy brings in during the January transfer window.
You agree but still you think he is not good enough for spurs?
Yes - like Mane but not Mane - that's why I put LIKE in capitals.. as in a Mane type player but only better..
