He's awesome, did brilliantly for the third goal in winning it off the defender and then setting up Minamino. Gonna see a lot more of that on Thursday I reckon.

He is joy

Our goal celebrations are greatly enhanced by his presence.

Signs of the Bobby that's been key to this team hitting the heights it has in the past. Grew into the game I thought and offered that crucial connection between defence/midfield and attack. We're so much more fluid and controlled when he's dropping into space and linking play. As dangerous as Jota is through the middle I still think it's Bobby I'd be choosing in there if everyone is fit and on top form.

Love him, cares more about his teammates than his own record!

I don't know if he gave it to Taki because his own chances of scoring were lower or because Taki needed the boost, but if it was the latter it just makes him even more awesome. That type of selflessness is exactly what's needed to balance out Mane and Salah.

We won, so he's safe for another week/few days.

Tbf, he makes the pass in a fraction of a second, so doubt he's weighed that up. Taki was open infront of goal (and facing it) was clearly cos he was in a better position

It was Taki’s birthday, it was a present

Would't even surprise me with Bobby though if it was a chance to give him a boost after his miss Thursday!

One of my favourite players. I was watching a Bobby compilation recently that had all his tricks, skills, major assists and big goals, I enjoyed that as much as I've enjoyed any other football compilation.

Exactly this.

Love that Bobby gets as much joy from an assist as he does from scoring himself. Doesn't even need to be an assist, he just loves it when we score full-stop.

Love his flair and his cheek

THat clapping when xhaka got sent off, was more than a bit cheeky, even celebrating the ref, proper unselfish team player

seemed to me Bobby was singing Happy Birthday as he knocked ball back to Mini.

My favourite player

Classy and loved the fact he instantly made sure full attention was on Minamino straight after he scored.

jepovic · « **Reply #13949 on:** January 20, 2022, 08:12:06 pm »

Just watch his movements, how he meets the defenders to receive the ball and creates space. So good, like watching an instruction video

reddebs · « **Reply #13950 on:** January 20, 2022, 08:27:24 pm »

He's a very underrated, magical player that's a joy to watch.

The problem is when your two main goal threats are on another continent you need him to switch back to prime 17/18, 1 in 2 Firmino. And he's never going to be that again.

I think we all love him and there'll be lots of young Bobby's starting school in LIverpool in the next few years, but just....I'd like him to do what his song mentions

Yeah but sometimes he needs to let others do their shit too.

Ya know, like Taki at the weekend 😁

Problem? The goal situation truly started with a flick from him.
