Liverpool enjoyed a positive summer on the transfer front, with the chequebook having been opened on a few occasions! Even the loss of Raheem Sterling was met with a certain degree of positivity given the £59m fee the club eventually got, and even though he was a key player, Kopites have had to wait a while to see his replacement… Roberto Firmino.

But that wait is over tonight, with Brendan Rodgers having thrust the former Hoffenheim ace into his starting XI following Adam Lallana’s latest injury set-back. Okay, Firmino has come on in both of the Merseysiders’ wins in league action this term, but late introductions have barely given a true representation of what he’s all about.

A hard-working, industrious player with that added bit of samba flair thrown in, excitement among the travelling fans is high… and here are some of the best reactions from Twitter.
