The kane manè sanè dream wont be fulfilled 😔

As a Liverpool supporter, while I'm not prepared to completely write off Mane as finished, one thing a lot of people aren't talking about is that he has been on the decline for a couple of years now. His form was going on a downward trajectory well before he left Liverpool

He had a very bad run of form during the 20/21 season, which he's said was the worst of his career so far. He had a good run of form post AFCON last year but he had to be played centrally instead of the left wing like he had been played in previous years and even then, he wasn't reaching the same heights he hit from 2017-2020

I'm not sure if he'll be able to turn things around at Bayern Munich, especially after the Sane incident, but I hope he can turn his career around. Even if he's on the wrong side of 30, he is still a world class player and coming from a Liverpool fan, he's always been very respectful towards the fans. It's a shame to see him like this

Mane wasnt doing badly before the injury. That injury completely derailed his settling in process at Bayern. Coupled with the absolutely insane decision to change coaches in the middle of the season and one can understand why Mane has struggled at Bayern.

[robs]

as someone who watches bundesliga every week, i cant remember a single good game of him this season. Really weird I thinks hes a great guy and i loved him at liverpool

[MarquisdeSuave]

Mané was always an odd choice for Bayern. The team needed a classic #9 to offset losing Lewandowski but found precious few strikers on the market who they could have gotten (no way was Haaland going to Bayern).

Personally I would have thought somebody like Isak would have been as close to perfect as he has the size, speed and skill to become featured on their 1st team but it would have been a big leap of faith for them to pull the trigger on him.

So they went with Mané who had been an elite winger on some of the best teams of the last decade. Problem was, his game has always relied on speed and at 31 he was slowing down. Not to mention his recent injury history. Players like him dont get better with age.

He's a great player, no doubt and early on he looked fantastic but then he kept getting these little dings. Plus he played a very tough international schedule in the African Cup instead of getting some much needed rest.

He looked like a completely different player by the time the New Year began. Tentative, unable to contribute and Bayern s@#$ the bed in a bad way.

I don't blame Mané I just dont think Bayern found the right guy as Mane and Lewandowski are far different players.

His punch on Sane was the best thing he has done all season 💀

[Captain_-cnml]

Hey. Could you please make a video on jose mourinho's roma? I feel like the way he has transformed the club recently deserves to be talked about.

[thetruth]

Mane and Salah are one of my favorite attacking duo`s of all time.
Liverpool did a great job bringing those two together.
i think Mane unfortunately became slightly underrated due to playing with Salah who was a more superior goalscorer, but Mane was the better playmaker in my personal opinion.
Edit: I`m not saying that Mane is better then Salah, because quite frankly he isn`t. Just that he was very important for the way that Liverpool used to attack. Mane due to his effectiveness gave Firmino and Salah a lot of space.

[resikin]

He was out for half the season due to a bad injury once he started finding his groove. Despite that he still has similar stats to Gnabry, Coman, and Sane who played full seasons. People are writing him off far too early, he will cook next year.

[tankisomakhetha]

“… he even speaks about getting into arguments with his uncle after his father had passed, over how harvesting crops took time away from his training - which is ironic considering the league he plays in.” 😭

That’s cold, T. Real fridgy

[sbexrpz]

i think a vid on sane would be interesting. he was terrifiying and city and seemed destined for the world stage but he's been so patchy at bayern.

[samkelorashuza]

The thing is Mane was like this for a long time at Liverpool as well in his last 2 seasons till the last 6 months. What made Mane so good for so many years was his Pace, strength and stamina, now those qualities are slowly declining which is why in his last six months at Liverpool Klopp eventually had to change the system for him to play as a false 9 then he was able to find a lot of success in that position. I don't know what Bayern are playing him as i don't watch them but if it requires a lot of energy Mane is not their man. As a Liverpool fan even tho i wouldn't take him back because we have to move forward i still miss him. He was top player when our team was on top and when our team was underpressure was a clutch player. Don't know if i remember the stat correctly but he has the most winning or equalizing goals for us after 90 min, we would surely atleast be top 4 with him. He will always be a Liverpool legend!

[leobestbote]

I'm a Manchester United fan but I have nothing but respect for Mane, he was one of the best players in the world during his peak years

[echolude]

I think the same could be said of Sane. It's like he lost his pace when he got injured, which seems like something Pep already knew. Similar to Son at Tottenham. 30yr old wingers are very hard to gauage, especially in high-pressing teams. Mane has to reinvent himself or move to Italy. The problem with Mane at Bayern is Muller. Muller occupies the space Mane is better suited. Additionally Gnabry is a younger version of Mane so he's the automatic starter. I think Mane needs to move to Italy where the brain is required more than the athleticism, hence Giroud still excelling.

[TK_Brainslug]

I think Bayern changed their system for him. Before his arrival they played a 4-2-3-1 after his arrival they played 4-2-4 often which is horrible when the attackers are standing on each others feet. They need an attacker who can secure the ball in the box. I would honestly prefer Tel over Mané at the moment.

[MrReese]

Bayern definitely wants to get rid of Mané and several EPL clubs are interested, such as Chelsea, Newcastle, etc. . Only Mané does not want to leave, which is not surprising given the amount of money he is earning.

3 videos in 6 days; I love how frequent and better these videos are becoming. Keep it up 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[neilspence]

As a liverpool fan I am gutted for the lad he was one of my favourite players hope things work out for him.

[martinmcdonald]

I never thought his move to Munich made any sense. He was a great play mate with Mo Salah and Liverpool have been missing that this season.

[slthlrdz]

Great episode. He was the most exciting transfer to Bayern for me in a very long time. I was very much looking forward to his incredible goal prowess and intelligence with Bayern and have been consistently shocked at what has transpired so far. I was absolutely gutted watching him sit on the field expecting the worse right before the World Cup. I hope Bayern keep him and I hope the new season brings with it huge success for the guy. He was incredible to watch in the Prem.
