'World-class' Mane is a machine, says Carragher

Sadio Mane is the "world-class winger" Liverpool have been missing since the days of John Barnes, according to former defender Jamie Carragher.

The Senegal international has scored eight goals in 11 games for Jurgen Klopp’s table-topping side this season, part of a haul of 67 in 134 games since arriving at Anfield from Southampton.

He scored as Liverpool beat Leicester City last time out to extend the team’s winning run at the start of the season to eight games, a result which also saw them pull eight points clear of champions Manchester City.
