Some Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the return of Roberto Firmino to training ahead of the match against Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa.
Liverpool will take on Villa at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
Roberto Firmino back in Liverpool training
And Jurgen Klopp’s side have received an injury boost.
Brazil international forward Firmino is back in training with the rest of his Liverpool teammates at the AXA Training Centre in Kirkby.
The Liverpool no. 9 has been out of action since sustaining a hamstring injury against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last month.
It remains to be seen if Firmino will be available for the game against Villa.
We will get to know more about it from Liverpool manager Klopp today.
Liverpool fans delighted
What is clear from the tweets below is that Liverpool fans are excited at the prospect of having Firmino back in action.
Well, some of them anyway.
Diogo Jota has been playing well for Liverpool in the absence of Firmino.
But, in our opinion, the Brazil international is a very important player for Liverpool.
Firmino is the glue the keeps the Liverpool front-three together.
Yes, the 30-year-old is not as prolific as Mohamed Salah, but he knows how to get the best out of the Egyptian and Sadio Mane by sacrificing his own game.
