Gini doing his usual standing on the edge of the box watching runners scoreā¦
Think heās done his 2 tackles per season for this year.
Goals for good finally and doing justice to such a wonderful song for him, lol. Overall was still below his usual brilliant self, but two more games and I think the Kop might raise his performance further thereafter. Atleast keep the goals coming till then, Bobby!!
His overall stuff improved recently in my opinion. Donāt know why he was criticized for trying to pass to Jota last night, that wouldāve basically been a clear shot on goal. Thatās just Bobby, pre-his dip in form and lately,l nothing new there. Actually a trait he was lauded for (or still is). Good finish with his head. Though shouldāve passed quicker to Jota when Diogo hit the post (Jota couldāve done better as it was, but a quicker pass wouldāve helped him).
Jota shouldnāt be putting it where he did to be fair, Henderson offers pretty much the entire side to him.
Itās Jota at fault nothing to do with the pace or not of the pass to him.
And Iām a Jota Fanboy
For me, Bobby needs to do it as soon as possible. Receive-pass, donāt wait, not one needless extra touch. I was screaming for it watching it. Sometimes half a second makes a difference. But yeah, Jota shouldāve done better.
Jota literally has less than the width of the ball to squeeze that in, itās possibly it goes in above Henderson and it probably would but considering where he is stood it really should be going in the opposite side.
I donāt think Iād criticise Henderson on that as must as the other because he does cancel out the option that Jota goes for and Iām always one that will caution more on the near post than the far as there is a far bigger chance of them missing especially at acute angles.
Henderson doesnāt do anything to make that last one for Salah hard mind, no closing down and basically staying on his near post. Iāll always come out on that even if you push the player to having to go around you, you may leave your defenders an opportunity to get back.
No diga gol, diga Bobby!
Over the moon to see him scoring against utd.
Roberto Firmino Barbosa de Oliveira, well, thatās one mouthful.
So, people will shortly be allowed in football stadia again. Bobby hears this, and promptly, gets back to prepping himself up for those celebrations with the fans.
And of course, as he picks up some form, the whole team soars two or three levels above where it was previously, and we put four past a defence which had rarely received more than one goal per game during the whole season.
Coincidence? Of course not!
I thought he worked harder than normal today and for once he was more aggressive in taking shots when in the right position.
He is definitely more involved and linking up plays more effectively, maybe the captaincy and the brace he scored last game helped alot. But also reminded all of us that Firmino is not going to go away that easily. Form is temporary even for an extended period, but class is permanent.
With fans returning, Firmino will be even better in the next two games.
Yeah, good stuff between the lines, thought he combined well with Thiago. Realized we had some problems in midfield with basically only one performer there, so had to help them even more.
Another Baby Alarm, the Firmino family announced that they will have another baby girl.
Congratulations
