MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp said there was no conflict between himself and striker Sadio Mane despite the Sengalese forward's snub at the end of Thursday's 4-2 Premier League win at Manchester United. Mane, who started on the bench, turned away from Klopp's outstretched hand at the final whistle after coming on as a 74th-minute substitute. Asked about the incident, which was captured on television, Klopp was quick to play down its significance. Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane agreed but questioned Klopp's habit of going on the field to greet his players. "The player is out of order but when I was a player I didn’t want the manager coming on giving me high fives.
