Sadio Mane was back to his copycat best this weekend for Liverpool, while there are golazos galore and a player in Poland with an iron knee, all in Social Shots.
In our weekly feature, we take a look at the best social media posts from across the world of football over the weekend. Football and social media can go hand in hand, but not everyone gets it right. Here, we celebrate those that do, highlighting the posts that have made us chuckle, the videos of wonder goals that we’ve just had to watch again, or just anything we felt simply had to be shared…
Patience is a virtue
Flores being sacked after just 85 days is surely peak 2019? The Hornets have actually had more managers than Premier League wins this season.
Quique Sanchez Flores has been sacked by Watford after just 85 days in charge.

Mane the copycat
Sadio Mane is Liverpool’s copycat…
Golazo
We reckon this strike from Kevin De Bruyne should come with an age restriction! What an absolute screamer.

Are you watching Mr Southgate?
Jack Grealish has been directly involved in seven goals this season. That’s more than any other English midfielder in the Premier League.
Jack Grealish's goal at Old Trafford was a thing of beauty!

Pressure mounts on OGS
It’s not getting any better for Manchester United who look like they’ll need a small miracle to qualify for the Europa League next season, never mind the Champions League.

Golazo
Wow. We are not even sure how to sum that one up. 25 yards out? On the volley? Keeper off his line? Outrageous.

It’s not gone well
For a goalkeeper, there is no hiding place. And so it proved for this unfortunate chap in the Dutch Eredivisie over the weekend.
Well it's fair to say that didn't go to plan…

Silva on the brink
Sunday’s defeat leaves Everton hovering precariously above the drop zone with Marco Silva now facing a make or break couple of days, starting with Wednesday’s Merseyside Derby.

Fabulous Foxes win again
Kelechi Iheanacho’s late strike extended Leicester’s winning run to six matches and the lads clearly enjoyed it!

On this Day
On this day in 2018 Divock Origi scored one of the flukiest ever Merseyside derby winners… and Jurgen Klopp went a little bit mad.
