These Liverpool fans were raving over Takumi Minamino after the Liverpool Twitter account posted a training ground image of the Japanese international.
Minamino is yet to make a serious impact at Liverpool, however, the Japanese international has only played one match for the Merseyside club. The 24-year-old has scored 11 times for his national side Japan, which is even more impressive when you consider Minamino has only played 22 matches for the senior side.
Here’s what these Liverpool fans had to say about Takumi Minamino after a training ground image of the 24-year-old was posted:

Would you like Takumi Minamino to start against Tottenham Hotspur?
Yes
No
It’ll be interesting to see if Minamino will play against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, with Liverpool winning four out of the last six meetings between the sides, however, one fan suggested Jose Mourinho’s side better be prepared, should they have to deal with him at the weekend.
Absolute baller.

What Do We Think?
We are still yet to see what sort of role Minamino will have at Liverpool, as it seems unlikely that the 24-year-old will be starting every week, with players such as Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane playing in the wide areas.
However, with Jurgen Klopp’s side playing UEFA Champions League football, Minamino could be used as a solid rotation player for Premier League games near their European fixtures.
