Love the sound it makes hitting the net. Could watch that all day.

What a name, what a talent

Very anonymous today, not sure if it was the midfield 3 or if the occasion was a bit much for him.
Hope his injury isnāt anything too bad.
Yeah hopefully just a precaution.
it was a proper whack that came right on half time and then would have swollen up and stiffened during the break. Small potential for knee hyperextension, but it seems likely it was just a dead leg plus an opportunity to change things up.
Today was his least influential appearance, but I think a lot of that can be put down to those at either end of the pitch. It looked like a frustrating game for he and Elliott with the ball constantly bypassing them despite them offering some options.

Thank goodness itās just a dead leg but doubt heāll be available midweek
Firmino on Carvalho: "Heās a great player. I confess that I had watched some of his games before he came to Liverpool, so I was already impressed by the way he played.
āHeās a star, heās a great player and now heās also a very close friend. We are happy to have him here at Liverpool and I know he will help us a lot, with assists, goals and also his character on the pitch.ā

Some of the close control yesterday was just brilliant. Another confident young lad whose trajectory upwards will be fun to watch.

He already reminds me of Coutinho.

He needs to be stronger on the ball. Which surprises me a bit. Considering he played in the Championship, he should have been well prepared for the rough & tumble of Premier League.
But still, a young player going from 44 games (a little more than a full season) at Fulham straight to one of the worldās best sides is quite a jump. Technically heās sound. Klopp and Pep both said he needs to improve certain things (I think they were more aiming at off the ball and physically) and thatās all just natural.

Struggled to really get involved for me since that late late winner, looked far better when coming off the bench.
That being heās still shown glimpses of the type player he can be which is promising.
Not that itās too important or that he will go to Qatar, but heās included in Portugalās provisional 55-man squad. Along with 16 other players with 0 caps so far.
With Jota ruled out, do you think he will be included at least as a backup? Although, I think the Portuguese team is loaded with attacking players.
Not a chance. What are you smoking. World Cup squad places donāt just get handed out like big issue leaflets through your letterbox Ifti lol come on.
Nah, they have enough proven senior forwards. In this position on the left, especially with the emergence of Leao.
55 players.
Edging their bets with injuries.
This Portuguese squad is seriously talented in almost all positions. Thereās no way this current version of Carvalho gets in. Maybe in the future when he develops more
Has he given any indication of which way heās going to go? I know I recently(ish) swapped back to portugal in the youth level, but tha can often just be a case of getting as many good opportunities as you can while the decision doesnt matter.
