Liverpool legend Aldridge tells Firmino: Well played, lad - but that flick? What are ya doin'?

Liverpool legend John Aldridge hailed the impact of Roberto Firmino for victory at West Brom on Sunday.

Firmino's header proved the winner on the day.

Aldridge wrote for the Liverpool Echo: "It was one of Roberto Firmino's best games for Liverpool. He showed good composure and good touch - the only thing I didn't like was that flick on the edge of his own area late on! What was that! You don't do those in your own last third!

"But he took the header for the goal well.

"It's what they've got to do from now until the end of the season. They've all got to rise to the challenge because we're going to be without Jordan Henderson by the looks of it for most of the games."
