Sadio Mane has declared that Liverpool are desperate to win the Premier League title as well as insisting he was brought down for a penalty by Serge Aurier.
Mane said: "I was thinking 'we're going to come back'.
"We pushed as a team and after a great many chances we scored the two goals. We deserved to win."
On the spot-kick incident, he added: "It was a clear penalty. I tried to put my leg between him and the ball, and it was unlucky for Serge Aurier and lucky for me.
"It's too early to speak about the title, but sure, we want to win it."

surely we want to win EPL and there's no hesitation to say that if we fail this season we will have to wait for it another ten 10 years to compete for it while if we manage to win it we will have to compete in each and every season of those 10 years.

same player again,Mane tried that against Manchester United game in early minutes when he thought the defender was close on him he threw himself down but lucky enough United defender was far from him.Now against Spurs he dived and he got lucky.FIFA should realy change their rules and players like Mane diving should be red carded right on spot.

we won but not the okay I expected..wijnaldum was tired, henderson was lost in the game. Fabinho was awesome . Klopp could have given Chamberlain and Keita some play time... Salah for Gomez was totally wrong...Mane our game winner . Klopp needs to be confident in our players and stop that nonsense "trusted trio" of wijnaldum, hendo and fabinho...he can go with fabinho Keita and Chamberlain who is our only midfielder who shoots from to range(especially outside the 18)!!
