Liverpool have hit the ground running in what is expected to be another epic battle for the Premier League title this season after missing out on the crown by a mere point last year.
The Reds were frankly given a kinder opening day fixture this campaign as they welcomed newly-promoted outfit Norwich City to Anfield on Friday evening.
Liverpool have always had a great record against the Canaries and that certainly continued as the Reds scored four goals in the first half to convincingly brush aside Norwich City with half of the game still left to play.
Roberto Firmino was back in competitive action for the Reds after being troubled by injuries towards the end of last season.
The Brazilian could prove to be a key part of the Reds’ title challenge this year as Klopp’s men look to finally leapfrog Manchester City in another long race for the Premier League crown.
After being named as the man of the match, Firmino received more rave reviews from the Liverpool faithful on Twitter.
He was absolutely amazing tonight. Hunger, desire, passion, skill, and nearly a couple of goals! 10/10 ?

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

Firmino looked great and I expect a lot from him, if it wasn’t for my double Liverpool defense he would have made the cut for my team. Salah missed some chances but he back to his usual self – a must have. Robertson had a great shot but TAA got a great assist setting……

Firmino bossed it last night, think he’s in for another great season. Was great for a lot of last season but a bit inconsistent at times, reminiscent of his first couple of seasons where he’d go a few games in a row contributing little.
