He’s world class”
Andrew Robertson -

“His work rate,his technique,his goals and his all round play, I don't think there's anyone like him. People will say there are better strikers, but for me what he does is so important to our team. We'd be lost without him. Hes world class. He does everything”

“People always talk about Mane & Salah but Firmino has also popped up with the goals/assists despite not looking like a typical striker. He is a work-horse & he has so much so skill but because he works his socks off I don’t think people realise how skilful he is.”
Graeme Souness -

“I love watching Roberto Firmino play. A couple of years ago, I likened him to Kenny Dalglish. He’s like a big cat walking through the jungle waiting for an opportunity to do damage.

His radar is on all the time and he’s got a great football brain”
Phil Thompson -

When you talk about high press, what people don’t realise is Firmino starts it. He is like Ian Rush”

Thats the way he plays and he does those magnificent things all the time. I love him,I absolutely love him such a joy to play with and to feed off.

Hes always looking for others,he works for the team”
Ian Wright -

“His consistency & the way he plays that No 9 role & drops in, he’ll pop up on the right/left, I just think he is fantastic.

What he does is so important to what Liverpool do. When he’s not playing, it’s so noticeable. No-one else can do what he does.”
Thierry Henry -

“His movement, work-rate, the way he makes the two central defenders move to allow Salah to make those runs.

Kaka -

“Firmino & Suarez are the best forwards in the world right now.

Peter Crouch -

“Firmino was nominated for the Ballon d’Or this week and he deserves to be in that category. I recently heard a quote that I loved: ‘If you watch the game you don’t see Firmino. If you watch Firmino you see the whole game.’ Poetry. He is a genius”
