Thanks ed that's good to hear. I only asked as I saw a question on facebook saying out of liverpools front three who would be less painfull to lose coutinho, mane or firmino and I genuinely couldn't answer but thought if mane still has issues it would make it easier lol. Still I think firmino is the very last player I would sell he is breath taking at times and world class the rest.

Thanks again ed.

{Ed001's Note - Firmino is the one I would want to hold onto at all costs, personally.}

But then there's coutinho lol it's a difficult one but firminio is definately the best out of the three. (just) Isn't it great though having such a front 3 like these.

Amazing that the Firminho purchase got some stick in these pages initially! He's perfect for Klopp's style and the conspiracy theorist in me wonders whether Jurgen had been lined up to replace Rodgers much earlier than he did.

My only negative on Firminho - I'm not sure he's a 20 goals a season player but it's working at the minute!

Firmino will score 20 plus this season.

I think firmino is the guy that gives you 8/ 10 every week, works very hard, and has that bit of magic. Mane has the pace that we were lacking and just needs to improve his finishing to be almost unplayable. Coutinho is getting more consistent, and I think that is partly due to being on the same wave length as the other two, he passes more, because the runs are being made. I'd hate to lose any of them.

As for sturridge Ings and origi, origi is the only one I'd hate to lose, sturridge is the best finisher but is he going to be happy being 2nd choice, and I think we'd risk losing origi if sturridge doesn't go.

But, wait a minute. Ed02 said we paid waaaaaaaaaaaay over the odds for Firmino - silly us again paying far more money than anyone else would (or maybe we realised just what a good player he was? )

Anyway, back to the point. Mane is unreal. Such a key cog because he can get in behind when the others drop deep. Front 3 has such a good balance.

{Ed001's Note - I think you are missing the point, just because it has turned out to be a good deal, does not mean we paid good value at the time.}

Little analogy for J H.

If you paid £1k for a car at an auction when everyone else was willing to pay only upto £400, you paid way over the odds.

If the car then gives you 10 years of faithful service, fantastic. But it will never change the fact that you paid much more that you needed to.

Of course if the car falls apart as you drive it away, you were stupid on all counts.

Car A - faithful service, is the one I would equate to Firmino.

Car B - a wreck within a few minutes. Hmmm, which pony tailed Geordie could I be thinking about here?!

Wow - thanks Zeddicus - really appreciate the breakdown. I was a little lost at first, but now that makes absolute sense. Silly me.

I was just highlighting the fact that Ed02 loves getting in the sly digs when he can. He loves highlighting our overpayments, the "I'm not talking about finance" purchases and then the exact breakdown of the Suarez deal (just so we realise we didn't get what we think we did)

Toodles.

{Ed001's Note - that's what he is here for, you seem to just be here to make pointless digs. He is trying to keep feet on the ground.}

Just posted something related to this, Firmino's a brilliant fit for Klopp and Mane brings the pace and directness we lacked but Coutinho is the magician of the team and what he brings is the hardest to replicate, I would lose either of the others before him.

That's nonsense Ed01 - 99% of my posts are about the team/ game/ strategy/ anything game related. I only post comments like that as Ed02 needs to be pulled up on it.

Everyone else can hang on his nutsack, but if wants to keep digging out this football club, I'll keep pulling him up about it.

{Ed001's Note - what he needs is less knobheads getting their arse in their hand and posting sly digs. The nonsense is coming from you. Just stop it. If you don't like what he has to say, then don't read it, but don't waste my time any more with turning it into an argument because you are a child who can't take someone having a different point of view. If you could discuss it civilly, it would be fine, but you just make sly digs.}

Always a pleasure to serve the community, spreading knowledge to the less fortunate.

Keep at it, little fella, and I'm sure the understanding will come.
