    We all love Bobby. The man has skills. But I think his poor finishing needs addressing. Chance first half he slowed down for and gave away the opportunity to shoot, couple of times the play breaks down with him in the box trying to be fancy. The shot near the end was so bad I think it was going wide. He's going to cost us soon. Not scoring in 17 home games and it not being a problem is freakish. The same happens this year and we're dropping points.

    I think he needs competition. I think Mane and Salah provide it to each other in terms of goals rather than a fight for the jersey. But Bobby needs to be looking over his shoulder and feel pressure. Origi isn't giving it. Hopefully a settled Mino might just do that.

    Come on Bobby raise the game time.

        He did score in the last home game of last season so his not scoring at home record is back down to one game now
        The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

          Bobby's goal scoring record is an odd one, at times he's a very composed finisher and he is capable of the no look goals, but if you look at his career record in 11 seasons he has only got more than 12 goals in all competitions three times 2013-14 for Hoffenheim (22) and 2017-18 (27) and 2018-19 (16) for us.

            He’s not a goal scorer so I don’t expect him to score all he time he misses a sitter.
            Are we winning?

              It looks like we’re lacking confidence - which is odd cos we’re champions but understandable given how we’ve been playing.

                  I thought he was brilliant vs Arsenal and last week vs Chelsea.

                  Works so hard, he recovered the ball countless times last night, and lead the press.

                    Yeah he was fantastic. It was me that mentioned he needs to score more and I think long term he eventually does, but it's clear as day he's a few levels above someone like Minamino in his all around play.

                    Still delighted he's finally looking like he has a bit of competition as I think it could bring out the absolute best in him.

                      Arsenal fans are the ones who criticise Firmino the most yet they lauded Bergkamp who averaged 8 PL goals a year! A bunch of numpties.

                      Bobby was class again last night, especially last half hour when Arsenal were trying to find a way back into the game. He dropped deeper to give us complete control and make it easier for the likes of Salah, Mane / Jota to dart in behind. He does that every game.

                      It's Bobby creating the spaces, leading the press and his unselfish play that's a big part of our system and also why Mane & Salah get the space to get through on goal more often. He pulls the defence apart

                        The Bergkamp comparison is quite good.

                            Can’t wait to see the result of him & Thiago on the same side after a bit of acclimatising.
                            3rd place. Worst champions ever.
