Liverpool got their Premier League season underway with a 4-1 win over Norwich City at Anfield and whilst Roberto Firmino didn’t score in the game, he was still voted as Man of the Match by the club’s supporters.
A boss performance to start the season from Bobby ?
He's your @carlsberg man of the match ? pic.twitter.com/8a8aN9OQfW

An own goal from Grant Hanley, plus efforts from Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Divock Origi earned the Reds three points but Bobby Firmino was the man who these fans couldn’t wait to praise.
Looks sharper than ever, great to see him back to his best

Fully deserved. Bobby was phenomenal despite not scoring. Magical performance.

He was absolutely amazing tonight. Hunger, desire, passion, skill, and nearly a couple of goals! 10/10 ?

Then, as is often the case on Twitter, these fans used some GIFs to show their support to the Brazilian.

However, not every fan agreed with Firmino being given the Man of the Match award.
Thought Fabinho was best player on the pitch ??♂️

Absolutely not deserved!! I wanna know exactly what Firmino did. He just missed two easy goals. Also, his assist was not that wow. I agree that he played well but sorry he doesn't deserve to be the mom.

Read Liverpool verdict
Liverpool won 4-1 but they weren’t exactly flawless and some improvements will he needed, especially in defence. However, the attackers looked in really good form and whilst Firmino did miss a very easy chance, his all around performance was excellent and he deserved to be voted as Man of the Match.
Was Firmino Liverpool’s best player against Norwich?
Yes
No
