He cost Wolfsburg 30m+

Liverpool agree £30m fee for Mane this evening. Mane to undergo medical tomorrow!

Klopp thinks he can shape what looks like a rough diamond.

It is but he has the potential to be a very good player; he is still young but if Klopp can polish what is still a very rough diamond he may be worth it! I do think in the short term at least, the fans may have to be patient. Even at £30m he should be given time to be allowed to make mistakes and to settle.

Third most expensive Liverpool player ever. An excellent signing in my opinion.

Unfortunately I have to ask, is it?

Seems to be about right for the hyper-inflated times we live in.

He does also seem to be quality and I havent seen one dissenting voice on any Liverpool forum (apart from yours laugh ) )

Not dissenting as such, just a little surprised.

I have total faith in Klopp and I'm looking forward to him shaping his own squad at long last.

Surprised, given what the two Saints fans said the other day. I guess Klopp thinks he can get him on side. Given Klopp's well publicised "what u want from a player", I guess he sees it all in Mane. Which is good enough for me. 30m for a rough diamond though. Jesus...

Mkhitaryan is going to the mancs. I'd have liked him with us to be honest.

Dortmund are being picked apart at the moment. Lots of exits.

Did he play under Klopp at Dortmund? If so, we'd have to conclude that either he was too expensive , he didn't want to play for Klopp again, or that Klopp doesn't think he fits at anfield.

Yes he did, and he scored against us last season. £26M is fee I've seen quoted.

So either he doesn't want to play for us, or Klopp doesn't want him. Either way is fine by me to be honest.

He didn't like Klopp's style. Publicly said he preferred playing under Tuchel.

Jammy is right - that would never happen, didnt like Klopps style

Here is Mane's goals from last year, he certainly tore us a new A hole last year, https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=155&am...

I did like that run for one of the goals. From his own half like an express train, pass threaded through and bang. Be interesting to see how him and Sturridge get on...

All paid upfront apparently.

Our £30M+ signings have been duds.

Let's hope Mane bucks the trend.
