LIVERPOOL, England (Reuters) - Sadio Mane’s third goal in four Premier League games set Liverpool on their way to a 3-0 win against Crystal Palace on Saturday and his return to form has handed manager Juergen Klopp a timely boost in what is shaping up to be a tight title race.

Mane was below-par last season and his haul of 11 league goals well down on previous years, but he has got out of the blocks quickly in the current campaign and reached a century of goals in all competitions for the Anfield club in the hard-fought home victory over Palace.

"I am lucky to score so many goals against Palace. But the most important thing was the three points. Right place, right time. I am lucky and happy. Thank you to all the fans, club and staff. Without them I am nothing," Mane told BBC Sport. "I think people are not wrong saying Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United as well for the title. We will try to be our best and at that level."
