When it comes to Sadio Mane, it isn't just about scoring or notching up volumes of goals. The Senegalese attacker is well-adept at finding the net in the most unusual circumstances and from tight angles.

The 26-year-old has rattled the net 14 times in 28 league games for the Merseysiders this season. He contributes substantially when it comes to the depth Liverpool have in their goalscoring department, with Mohammed Salah and Roberto Firmino also featuring in their ranks.

Sadio Mane operates on the left and is famous as a speedster and for his partnership with Salah and Firmino. He has an xG value of 10.32 and exceeds it by 3.68 points.

Mane's numbers speak volumes about his importance in Liverpool's setup. Mohammed Salah might take all the credit and fame for his impeccable goalscoring skills, but his Senegalese counterpart has proven to be of equal importance when it comes to accumulating goals.
