Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino has expanded on his partnership with compatriot Philippe Coutinho in the Reds’ attack this season. The pair have been in fine form as the Merseyside club appear ready to challenge for the league title.

Firmino, Coutinho and Sadio Mané have operated as a fluid front three, providing the fulcrum of Liverpool’s early season form. Firmino told Liverpool.com, “We think the same way. We know what we’re going to do before possessing the ball.

“We always understand each other in the games and with our skill everything turned out well. Philippe is a magician, who makes magic in each shot, who is always helping with scoring goals and his incredible moves. He is always doing his best on the field.”

However, Firmino insists that Liverpool have achieved nothing yet, “If we do not continue on this track until the end of the season, no-one will remember us and we will not achieve anything,” he says. “We have to continue on this track until the end.

“The league has been improving, year by year, the standard and the players have been growing. Each year is more difficult to be always at the top, winning Premier League titles, which is the most competitive championship in the world. And it is an honour to be playing in the league.”
