Klopp: We knew Mane was good, that's why we bought him!
The 24-year-old delivered an inspirational display at the Pirelli Stadium and provided another snapshot of why the Reds were right to sign him from Southampton
Jurgen Klopp revealed Liverpool expected exactly the kind of attacking masterclass Sadio Mane produced in the 5-0 League Cup victory over Burton when they parted with 30 million pounds ($39.6M) to acquire his services.
The Senegal international, recruited at the end of June from Southampton, recorded two assists, played five key passes and was tireless throughout the second-round encounter at the Pirelli Stadium.
