No news yet on the results of his scan. Was the injury received during the goal celebrations as he sat down on the pitch just after?

 

One of the papers said that it was because all his teammates had piled on top of him.

I can never understand these risky goal celebrations. For example, sliding on both knees always makes me cringe (I'm looking at you Shane Long).

I was always concerned that Mayuka's goal celebration could cause him a lengthy injury....oh.

On the stream I was watching the taters said he had picked up the injury in training but hoped he would be able to play through it.

Wanyama may be to blame, Mane was celebrating his goal with a couple of teammates and Wanyama jumped on top of them all. Mane then started to hold part of his leg in pain, as it may have buckled awkwedly.

 

You can see it briefly here, I did see a longer version and it looks even clearer that Wanyama jumping in did something to cause Mane to be in pain...

Mane is not ging to the AFCON as his unjury will rule him out for 4-6 weeks.

 

Good, you really do not want your players tossing about down in sub saharian africa mid season. Especially those that were at the WC last summer.

per MLG post #416, among various others above.
Cheers. Bloody ridiculous if true, one of those things I guess, but just when the lad is hitting form makes it even more frustrating.

If he's not properly injured, he ought to shut up. Sounds like Senegal will want to assess him at the least, so likely a trip overseas. Poo.

 

More likely he is downplaying the injury as is desparate to have a chance to play in the ACON.

 

Can't blame the guy for that. Just hope he and Senegal are sensible and don't rush him back too soon.

He's always struck me as a player with terrific potential. The pace coupled with him being able to control the ball at speed as well as the fact he's two-footed means that he's a player who'll always have the ability to pull something special off.

 

We'll just have to accept that for now he's one of those lads who every now and then, will have the odd game where he just doesn't turn up.

Great game today. Always looked threatening with his pace and running behind the line of defenders. Excellent finish under pressure for the three points. If he can avoid going down too easily when leant upon he will become one of our "legends" IMO.

Until he goes to Liverpool or Spurs - then he's judas scum....

What a finish today. He's the type of player who will have a shocker followed by a blinder.

 

I think he's pretty consistent, it's just some games the things he tries won't quite come off and the morons will say he's had a shocker.
