Pace and power from Sheyi Ojo and a deflected cross created the chance, which Firmino took in superb sliding style.

But it was Firmino’s celebration that demanded attention.

In truth, the 24-year-old former Hoffenheim star’s behaviour was a little cocky, borderline arrogant – as were his aforementioned tricks.

Not to criticise Firmino though, because fans love to see such antics, especially when a player is backing up his swagger with solid stats.

I fancy this bloke to have a MASSIVE season for the Reds.

Although I’m not overly qualified to dish out fantasy football advice – having got a pretty dim record on such games – I’m making Firmino my skipper!
