READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT
Mane was outstanding yet again as Liverpool continued their march towards a first ever Premier League title. Virgil Van Dijk was another contender for man of the match as he produced a colossal display at centre-back to keep Palace at bay for most of the match.
The Senegal international is not currently one of the favourites for the Ballon d’Or, but if he carries his form over to 2020 and can stay consistent throughout the year – he certainly has a great chance at taking it home next year!
