he’s obviously moving due to salary and wanting more of a spotlight. I can appreciate that. He deserves much more credit than he’s been given and he’ll hopefully get that at Bayern.
however, moving to Bayern is not a challenge. I hate when people say shit like a player is moving for the challenge when they move from top club to top club. it’s definitely an opportunity to win more trophies and a higher chance of winning the Champions League for sure. so good for mane, he deserves to finish out his career in style
It is a new challenge as it's a new environment, new language, culture etc.
But I do get your point and showhow agree. Not sure Bayern currently is a bigger chance of winning the CL compared to Liverpool, guess we shall see. I'd say it's 55-45/60-40 in your favour regarding that.
Lets see if our new signings to the midfield and especially RB can help us out defensively.

Mane is leaving because he was 11th or 12th highest salary in his own club, when he is 2nd best player in the team at his worst, pure insanity. Plus the most consistent scorer in CL playoffs since 2014 basically, but rarely got acknowledged for it. Its not easy playing next to a psuedo superstar like Mo Salah who naturally takes most of the headlines.
Always thought Mané was a bigger game player/somehow more important to Liverpool, but just not as flashy as Salah. You could maybe compare it to Lewandowski - Müller.
Lewandowski is obviously a better goalscorer, but Müller tends to have better matches on the biggest stage. Not to forget he's been feeding Lewa a crazy amount of assists since his arrival at Bayern.
But Lewa is the star player and gets all the attention.
