I’m not a great writer (not even a good writer), but I’ve wanted to make a Bobby Firmino appreciation post for some time. So, here goes:

He’s surpassed all expectations I had for him since his arrival. He’s become my second favorite Red since I became a fan behind Gerrard and surpassing Suarez. He’s so much fun to watch float around and do things. He appears to play outside the system but everything he does is important to how the rest of the team functions. I find myself focused on what he’s doing in most of the matches we play. He’s awesome in small spaces and gets out of so many jams by being innovative and more creative than anyone else. Yesterday, Lewandowski was using his body to block Firmino from the ball. Bobby, with his back to Lewandowski, somehow wrapped his leg around Lewandowski’s body and managed to flick the ball to a teammate without fouling and without being able to fully see the ball or his target. He gives 100% effort on every attempted header, which are often against bigger and taller defenders. Wins a lot of them too. He wants every 50/50 ball and attempts to make every tackle. He’s fearless in the box defending corners and tracks back more than any other number 9 in the league.

His passing in and around the box is better than anyone on our team. He’s put it on a plate for Mane and Salah so many times they should give him part of their paycheck. He’s made them better and vice versa. I can’t even speak logically about his goal celebrations. He’s the best in the league at celebrating a goal.  

Tl;dr - he’s a badass.
