Liverpool managed to register their 17th consecutive Premier League win but it wasn’t plain sailing as Norwich City put up a brave fight despite being rooted to the bottom of the table. The Canaries held the league leaders for 78 minutes before Sadio Mane, a second-half substitute, scored an excellent goal to make the difference.
Roberto Firmino started the game up front alongside Mohamed Salah and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and there was one moment in particular that left these fans gushing over the 28-year-old.
Is Firmino Liverpool's most important forward?
Yes
No

What do we think?
Firmino has started 92% of Liverpool’s Premier League fixtures this season, he’s made a total of 26 appearances scoring eight goals and providing seven assists.
The former Hoffenheim forward is by no means the most prolific goalscorer in Jurgen Klopp’s side but he has been hailed by his boss as being the ‘connector’.
