Roberto 'Boby' Firmino

Case in point.

I am sorry dude you single handedly will ensure people in this forum are getting fed up. I personally think your recent attitude is sincerely intolerable. If getting on a negative tone with every post there is I am sorry do not belong here.

I posted something positive about a player we bought. No where did mention that i have scouted him. No where did mention that the post signifies it is the final article on him. I simply posted something positive about the player. So where did that response come from?

I mean seriously what's wrong with you mate? I don't see anyone of us here intentionally going up against or promoting an agenda against every post we make!

Don't let him spoil your happiness. Just ignore, and keep going.

Everyone finally turning against the bad apple.

Or people could just do what I do: Ignore the parts in everybody's posts where you cannot see fruitful conversation or debate emerging and only comments on parts that seem worth it

Yes that seems to be the only way. But we have always been a small but close group this just annoys the flow.

Number 4 is a familiar name right?? I can't recall which team will he play for??

Firmino 4th and Neymar 68th seems about right

This list is meaningless

^ It's for the 2013/14 season.

Neymar had a pretty disappointing season with Tata if I ain't mistaken

I think it's for the calendar year 2014. Suarez's club is Barca, Sanchez's Arsenal etc.

Oh yeah... that explains a lot, but still...

I know even posts get edited many times

yesterday he was poor and the team set up by Dunga was even more horrible imo.

Again, I'm not really excited about this signing. People were super jizzing about the prospect of signing Markovic last summer and look how that turned out. Agreed that Firmino is more of a finished product than Lazar is, but I'm still not impressed. Has a lot to prove at a higher level and unless he consistently performs for us (given the price tag), I'm not gonna be satisfied.

Markovic just turned 21 and it was his first ever season in PL. He'll come good. Everything bad that I saw in him this season was a mental problem. He has the right skill set, needs to get right in the head now.

as I said in other thread, Firmino seems to be more talented version of Lallana and a Brazillian but I doubt he should be an undisputed starter for us just because he scored load of goals for Hoffenheim in Bundesliga. The positive things are his age, so he can still turn out to be something extra ordinary, but he has not proven himself yet to be a starter ahead of other players imo.

Not the best kind of endorsement though .

I would rather keep them fresh.

Hopefully they don't come down. Need them fresh for the season.

Firmino definitely doesn't look ready for Stoke. His first-touches were heavy, passes were misplaced and caught off-side too many times. Source: YouTube

He seems to be a very hard worker .

Waiting to see the combo (or shall I call it Tango) of Firmino, Coutinho and Lallana .

Can't say he's looked too good so far. Did he play second striker for Hoffenheim? He's not looking too comfortable when he's out wide.

well Firmino mainly played behind the striker. But he had almost a free role. I would say he was somewhere between a striker and AM. He had players like Volland and Szalai who created space for him to work. Since he played for Hoffenheim, other teams used to attack them and which resulted in space behind the midfield line, which he exploited beautifully. But he did not have 2-3 players surrounded and still 2-3 more players ready in surroundng zones.



you can clearly see in the above image, how organised WestHam are there. Firmino will need time to get adjusted to the league, constantly people picking up his heels and body pushing. He also needs to learn how to use the afforded space more effectively since that is how teams are going to set up against us this season.

I just hope we haven't bought a round peg for a triangle hole.
