He is actually also great at heading, which maybe you wouldn't think because he's not that tall, but he's very good at it. He's the kind of player that likes the ball at his feet and to do nice things with it, but something he learned in Germany was how to work without the ball and defend. I know how important that is in England, what you do without the ball. It was something he had to learn in Germany. I'm very happy for him. He's very talented and now it is down to him. He is the kind of player that can give a lot of joy to Liverpool fans because he's a very skilful player." the Dutchman told the club's official website.During the close-season, Firmino is one of six signings made by Brendan Rodgers, joining Danny Ings, James Milner, Adam Bogdan, Nathaniel Clyne and youngster Joe Gomez.
