Mourinho- “He’s very important to Salah & to Mane because he drops back in between the lines to allow Salah and Mane to score as many goals,"

“He’s fantastic and I didn’t know the words,I love it now you call it a work horse,I understand the meaning of it. He work so hard”

1/7
Wenger - “But you forget a little bit, the guy who sacrifices himself is Firmino.

“And like Suarez did for Messi and Neymar, the guy who works for the team, who works for everybody and gets them to shine. This piece of the jigsaw is always very difficult to find”

2/7
Klopp -“Mo Salah, world class, but not every day. Sadio Mane, world class, but not every day. Roberto Firmino, world class, pretty much every day."

“I told him I am not interested in the goal numbers because he is the connector for our team. He is so important for us”

3/7
Henry - “"His movement, his work-rate, the way he makes the two central defenders move to allow Mo Salah to make those runs, Firmino is the most complete striker in the league I'm not talking about the best finisher or the best work-rate, I'm talking about all round.

4/7
Kaka - “Firmino and Suárez,for me, are the best strikers in the world right now. You see Firmino playing the way he’s playing, he understands his position on the field,he’s changing this position as well. He’s not a striker which stays in the box all the time. He comes deep”

5/7
Crouch “"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 the man who makes Liverpool tick. He is a genius”

6/7
Then a quote from Steve Bruce explaining the values of what he does and how it was similar to when he played

7/7
Endless quotes and endless evidence of what he does for us, he’s one of the best forwards in the world but he doesn’t get the respect he deserves because he plays a position that’s a little different to what your usual striker does
