'Sadio Mane, world class, but not every day. Mo Salah, world class, but not every day. Bobby Firmino, world class, pretty much every day'

Not quite sure that’s accurate....

What a footballer. Up there with the cream of Liverpool footballers. He's playing football you'll probably get used to in about 20 years time.

You certainly wouldn't have known he'd just had a virus, still full of running, determination, tricky passing to keep Salah and Mane supplied. He should be even better against United, roll on Sunday.

Sounded like his new song got plenty of outings tonight. Love the song, as well as Bobby of course.

The sheer skill of the feller. We're used to seeing his incredible hard work off the ball. We're used to him being able to carve out space in crowded situations. But to see him collect waist-high passes when tightly marked and not only stun the ball and make it obey him, but to then accelerate out of the crowd with the damn thing stuck to his foot....we're talking genius.

And, those back heels and flicks! Football from 20 years time, brought to you NOW by Bobby Firmino.

I absolutely love the fella.

You did. It found a Red shirt too. It was meant to.

No Liverpool player has been so ahead of the game since Alonso.

I agree, absolutely my favourite player. The thing is Coutinho leaving has kind of allowed him to come out from his friend's shadow and show his talent that bit more. He has really grown as a player the last couple of seasons. I always remember how pleased Klopp was that we'd signed him and he hadn't really been used in a good way by Brendan. Klopp knew he was getting a gem of a player though.

Gini had the same virus before the Bournemouth game so maybe we all need to catch it.

He rolled his ankle so I'm sure he'll be fine, especially as he ran off the pitch.

Ratboy3G · « **Reply #9060 on:** February 24, 2019, 04:25:06 pm »

Hopefully he's back sooner rather than later, even when he's not on top form he's a vital cog in the machine

macmanamanaman · « **Reply #9061 on:** February 24, 2019, 04:28:27 pm »

i hope we figure out some other way to play when he is away. We depend a lot on him and he is not always on his game. Need a Plan B. Maybe with a different midfield setup.
Glass half full: Maybe not having Firmino for a game or two may help us stumble onto this accidentally.
Coz with Plan A, I am fairly confident of coming up short over the rest of the games points wise.

Chakan · « **Reply #9062 on:** February 24, 2019, 04:29:17 pm »

Huge loss when he went off, Hopefully he’s back for the next game

He's on crutches according to James Pearce.

Didn't you hear? His knee fell off

Caligula? · « **Reply #9069 on:** February 24, 2019, 05:22:44 pm »

He'll be a massive loss if he's out for an extended period of time. If he's out I'd probably make City heavy favorites for the title. We just don't have anyone who can replace him. Sturridge and Origi are completely useless and will probably be off during the summer anyway. Shaqiri is great but is still a step down in quality. Praying that it's only precautionary and he misses the midweek match and is back next week.

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #9070 on:** February 24, 2019, 05:24:44 pm »

If he's out then Salah needs to play central and Shaqiri needs to play wide.

Yorkykopite · « **Reply #9071 on:** February 24, 2019, 05:29:10 pm »

Fingers crossed on this one. He's a genius. We can ill afford to miss him.

I think there seems to be a bit of hope it won't be too serious, he didn't have a boot on or anything. Fingers crossed he won't be out for very long.

considering it an ankle injury. It probably better to not have him put a lot of weight on it and be careful for it. No idea how bad it is but they are likely playing it safe

Yeah or a diamond midfield with Shaq at the top behind salah and Mane.

Which is entirely normal, they won't want him putting any weight on it before they've checked it out.
