Liverpool are going to beat Man Utd - Mane
16th October 2016
Sadio Mane has declared that Liverpool will emerge victorious from their latest meeting with rivals Manchester United.
The two clubs meet for the first time this season at Anfield on Monday night with three points currently separating them.
But Mane is confident of increasing that margin by helping the Reds to a sixth consecutive victory in all competitions.
"We are going to beat Manchester United," Mane told the Daily Telegraph.
He added: "Of course [I think that]. We all believe it. We are going to make it."
Mane revealed that he did not regret ignoring interest from the likes of United in the summer of 2015 before deciding to leave Southampton for Liverpool a year later.
"In honesty, there were some clubs interested at that time but I never made any choices then," he explained.
"I did not say I thought of any club and I wanted to play there. That kind of interest gave me a lot confidence on the pitch and made me believe in myself, but I knew this was because of my hard work and I was in a good way.
"Ronald Koeman was not happy with all the rumours because he wanted me to stay, but it was not too complicated because for me, also, it was not time to go.
"When I spoke to him I told him, 'No problem, I will stay'. It was my decision. I wanted to stay at Southampton.
