The Senegalese speedster played a pivotal role in the Reds’ thrilling 4-3 win over Man City on Sunday, scoring the third goal with a rocket into the top corner just after the hour mark.

“When you're at work having a dull day and a nice voice asks 'I'm lost, can you help?’,” Twitter user Taj234 wrote alongside a video of the smiling forward.

“We spoke about Phil also – he was talking in confidence, he's gone now.

It comes after under-fire stopper Simon Mingolet pledged his future to the Liverpool amid uncertainty about his future at the club.
The Belgian has fallen out of favour in recent weeks but said he remains committed to the team.
