Mane: 'Liverpool can't dwell on setbacks'

Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane says that his side cannot afford to dwell on their recent setbacks as they look to remain competitive in the Premier League title race.

Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane has revealed that he is already fully focused on his side's upcoming matches after two disappointing results in the Premier League.

The Merseyside giants have recorded just one point from games against Bournemouth and West Ham United, leaving the club with a six-point deficit to leaders Chelsea.

However, while Mane has indicated that there is frustration over their recent results, he has admitted that he and his teammates must look ahead to Wednesday's away clash with Middlesbrough.

The 24-year-old told Sky Sports News: "I'm not frustrated about Chelsea, but maybe because we didn't win the games we should win. But it can happen in football, so it does not affect anyone in the team. We're going to do our best to win the next game.

"It's not easy. If you think you can win the game after thinking you can win the game, scoring and creating chances, and then not winning. Of course it's not easy, but we cannot focus on that, because we have so many games left in the season, it's long, and we try to take it game-by-game.

"Of course [I get frustrated] in those types of games. Not only me because we know our quality, we know we should win the game, and if we didn't win, it's no problem, we have to focus on the next games."

Mane has scored seven times in 16 appearances for Liverpool this season.
