Liverpool selling Sadio Mane was the 'worst business EVER' claims Paul Merson... as he insists his move to Bayern Munich is behind the Reds' poor defensive record and that £85m signing Darwin Nunez 'isn't in the same league'

Daily Mail | October 4, 2022

Liverpool's decision to let Sadio Mane join Bayern Munich for £35million was the 'worst business ever,' according to Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson.

Mane left the Reds after six years at Anfield back in the summer, and the Reds have struggled ever since his departure.

Jurgen Klopp's side have won just two out of their opening seven Premier League games and are already 11 points behind league leaders Arsenal - albeit, with a game in hand.

Merson in his Sky Sports column, has blamed Liverpool's poor defensive record on Mane's exit, and insisted that Darwin Nunez 'isn't in the same league' as the Senegalese star.
