AML Roberto Firmino 

“I want to play like that against everyone,” Roberto Firmino said after his brace against Arsenal.

Liverpool fans want you to play like that against everyone too, Roberto.

Firmino showed why his talent is worth the frustration at times with how he was the driving force in Arsenal’s half for Liverpool at Anfield. He opened the scoring with a neat, confident finish through a defender’s legs and into Petr Cech’s near post corner.

Then Mignolet lets up a shot to his near post, the only place Aaron Ramsey had to aim for yet it was still left uncovered, on Arsenal’s first real attack and the crowd was deflated.

Firmino wasn’t.

His 25-yard strike to put Liverpool ahead again was  incredible when taken on its own, but under the circumstances of occurring just after Liverpool got the wind knocked out of them made it that much better.
