The former RB Salzburg and Southampton took one shot, had a pass accuracy of 74.1%, made two tackles and two interceptions, and attempted three dribbles during his time on the pitch at Stamford Bridge.
Injury
Klopp told Liverpoolās official website about Maneās substitution against Chelsea: āIt was a knock on the bone, around the knee, and a dead leg ā thatās an awful combination.
āHe tried everything but I think you saw, there was one counter situation when he really tried and I would say on a non-dead-leg day he will get that ball, but no chance and then we say ācome on, now we have to do itā and changed. Thatās it.ā
