The Liverpool legend has never been afraid to speak up and was especially blunt when he criticized Sadio Mane three years ago; maybe Jurgen Klopp should pay attention
Pep Guardiola once said:
"There is nothing more risky than not taking any risks."
Some would say that his opponent, Jurgen Klopp, found out the hard way, with his handling of Sadio Mane in stark contrast to the way Guardiola handled things at Manchester City.
The moment that defines the game, the season, and even the legacy. The ability to recognize when a player isn't shooting all the way in the same direction as his teammates is part of what makes good managers truly great. It could be a moment of sliding doors, getting it wrong, and your side could suffer consequences that hold them back in the long run.
For example, Graeme Souness once stated that Mane's half-baked reaction to a challenge with Rob Holding worried him, as it seemed to imply that there had been some change in the Senegal international's mentality. Souness was speaking after Arsenal beat Liverpool, who won their first Premier League title earlier in the 2020 campaign, as he said:
"A telltale sign is that Mane has had a bit of trouble with Holding a few times. Mane has a big smile on his lips.
"Normal circumstances, Mane goes to war with you, he doesn't smile at you - he can't wait until the second half to start attacking you again and that tells you where they are, they are. sitting in their chair."

Almost two years after Souness' comment, Mane was sold to German giants Bayern Munich. He has left behind a club legend, but there is an argument to be made, those remarks represent a weakness for Klopp.
The German doesn't seem to possess the same ruthless personality as his City counterpart, who has seen the departures of several senior figures from his squad during his illustrious Etihad reign. me.
Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling, Oleksandr Zinchenko and more recently Joao Cancelo have all been sacked despite being considered key figures in the dressing room. In contrast, a large part of the Liverpool squad has many years of seniority. Jordan Henderson arrived at Anfield in 2011, Andy Robertson in 2017 and although Roberto Firmino and James Milner have left in recent weeks, both have enjoyed eight years with the first team.
For the most part, Klopp's unwavering loyalty to his players has helped him a lot, but Souness's scathing comments could be an example of one of the rare instances where the Liverpool boss can squeeze. stork earlier.
An eventful summer awaits the Red Devils and Klopp will have to make big decisions both inside and out if Liverpool are to bounce back from a disappointing campaign last season in which they missed out on Champions League spots.
