haha I was thinking the same thing, straight at the keeper.
Gut busting effort it must be said (if we are allowed any positivity any more and before he becomes the next scapegoat).

Tbf, he rarely gets that kind of open counter-attack oppurtunity playing for us

Scored 2 goals for Brazil but none for us. Klopp not getting the best out of Firmino. Useless.

Probably due the fact that dropping into a deeper role meant he had to take most of the shots farther from the goal, than he used to?
But again that might be just one factor and it could be a combination of that with his finishing dropping a level or so.

Bobby has not been at his peak for about a year. That is not to say that he isnāt an outstanding player. Heās still a quality presser, a hard worker, and a very intelligent player. But his finishing has been objectively worse and there are matches where he seems a bit out of sync with everyone.
My theory is that Bobbyās worn down a bit. His workrate has been massive for years now. Heās rarely missing games. Leading Kloppās intense press and a key trigger in the attack. That has to be incredibly taxing physically.
I think having Jota and Minamino to rotate in will give him more rest, and hopefully heāll be able to return to his peak form again - at least for longer bursts.

A bit better than in the last few weeks but still far off.

I thought he played well. Some key chances came through his quick control and passing. Ran down stray balls. Well in the match.

Classic Bobby.

Firminoās confidence looks shattered. Iām not sure if itās fatigue or some mental issue but he doesnāt look anything like that guy who dyes his hair red, wear red-tinted glasses and scores without looking. Not being able to score or assist is one thing, playing silly backheels in the middle of the crowd in front of your goal is another. Klopp loves him, we love him, too, but I think itās time for him to take a back seat for Jota or Minamino until he finds his mojo.
