Sadio Mane celebrates his goal against Burnley in gameweek 4
Sadio Mane would have made a much more compelling case had fortune favoured them in the African Cup of Nations and a deflected shot didn't find its way to the back of Senegal's net in the final of the tournament. It hasn't slowed Mane down though.

One of Jurgen Klopp's coveted front 3, Sadio Mane continues to cause mayhem whenever Liverpool foray into attack. Skilful, calm and intelligent, Mane is that rare footballer who looks set to deliver every time he walks out on to the pitch.
The hunger is there for all to see and Mane has started the new season well. From 3 starts in the Premier League so far, he has 2 goals and an assist and he alongside Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah once again look like they cannot be denied yet another terrific season in front of goal.
Once Mane really gets into the mood, he is expected to climb the list further.
