Roberto Firmino

[Chris]

Ridiculously good. Once he's surrounded by more quality we are going to erupt. We were **** with Suarez until Sturridge and Coutinho come. Same will happen again if we find the right players to support him regardless of the keeper, defence etc, all about the goals!

As expected it took him a while to find his feet and get used to the league, he's looking like a decent player now, lets hope he can keep improving game on game.

Said it in the match thread when he has a spring in his step and a bit of swagger he reminds me of Neymar. Seems to have worked the league out a bit and settled.

I'm creaming myself at the prospect of Coutinho, Sturridge (or Texiera) and Firmino.

Yes but also need to major upgrade in the spine of the team, center mid and central defense.

[Harv]

All 4 would be good

This is the player I was expecting once he'd got used to the league, and it's without Sturridge!

------Hendo-----Couts
------------Teix
----Sturridge---Bobby

if it can happen will be moist

Coutinho should never play that deep and Hendo is not a top class midfielder.

Coutinho should always play that deep, runners and movement ahead of him he thrives.

His best position is coming from deep, and I'm not sure where he'd fit into a 4-2-3-1, unless he plays on the left, and we have a marauding full-back who can make those penetrating runs.

In a midfield 2?

He would be one of the three behind that one main striker. With the two center mids, there is no way he should be one of them. Too much all-round responsibility including defending.

[Gibbo]

I think he'll get there.

And I think the can get better.

I'm glad I'm not the only one would understands where Coutinho should play in the best set up, his work from deep playing on the flank is very good but most people will always have him at the No 10 - obviously he can play there but he is a better transition player if you have goal scoring options taking the front three positions (obviously that's something we can barely remember at this point)
