I only said if as not arsed about arguing about it. He isnt one of ours now so just moving on
Totally agree we developed him
Could not say honestly whether a 1 in 5 or what. So many variables, take Salah as an example, get the right system and everything changes
That was why i put if in

 

If he turns up at Utd...... sterling will think he's loved in comparison to the welcome that guy gets.

 

He was more of a 1 in 3 player...

 

I think in his last year he really became a much more consistent performer. You’re right he was a 1 in 3 or 4 player but by the end (not including his last 3/4 months where was ‘injured’) he became a 1 in 2 and was much more influential.

 

With how we're now setting up in a 4231 system, he'd be brilliant as the no.10

 

Yep, for his last season when playing for a move. At the same time I said that about couts I said Firmino was a 1 in 8 player, if you asked me today I would say he is a 4 in 5 minimum.Things change according to playing style and effort, Firmino never lacked effort but the set up didn't bring the best out of him, now he is back to his German days best.

 

So, in short, you were proved wrong about Coutinho so your attacking Firmino as a deflection?

 

Where would you play bobby though? He’s wasted wide right or wide left

 

Up front, put Salah back on the right, Mane left and Shaqiri on the bench where he belongs

 

So you think at his best firm is only a 1 in 5 player?

i suppose in conpairon to lukaku that’s not bad

 

But in current set up klopp wants Salah through the middle.

 

Or go back to 433 and play Ford LCM

 

Because he was 2 in 5

 

He also thinks Firmino is a good option on the left and midfield trio of Milner, Hendo and Wijnaldum is great

 

Most ******ed manager to ever be 7 points clear in January

 

I think you need to re-read

 

Ah, 4in 5. Thought said 4 or 5

 

Minimum, possibly as high as 8 in 9

 

Thing with Bobby is, he can be poor on the ball and still be a very important key player because no matter what his firm is, he's always great defensively.

The fact that he's great offensively too when on form is brilliant (maybe not for you ).

His scoring figures aren't too shabby either, not one of the most prolific but he holds his own.

Easily my favourite player, we're just not the same when he's not playing.

 

I agree, when I judge a player it's on his contribution to the team, not his individual talent.
