Brazilian international Roberto Firmino looks like a different player under Klopp, and he has certainly hit the heights at times this term.

The 25-year-old moved from Hoffenheim in the summer of 2015, with Brendan Rodgers bringing him to Anfield, but Firmino didn’t net a goal under him before Rodgers lost his job in the October.

And since then, Firmino has been much improved, as he went on to net 11 times in all competitions last season, and has found the net nine times in 25 appearances so far this term.

However, he has scored just three goals in his last 13 league games, so he needs to re-discover his early season form soon to help the Reds reel Chelsea in.
