Liverpool were brilliant against Arsenal as we smashed them 5-1 at Anfield. The players have been excellent under Jurgen Klopp this season, and even after conceding an early goal, we didn’t panic and responded quickly.
Roberto Firmino fired in a couple of goals to nullify the goal from the Gunners, and the Brazilian completed his hat-trick in the second half.
The Brazilian was given the ball by Mohamed Salah to score his third goal, despite Salah taking most of our pens this season.
The Egyptian had already scored one penalty in the first half, and this was another example of the team spirit we have in this Liverpool team.
There are some great friendships in the team such as the one between Dejan Lovren and Salah, while we have seen some really funny interactions between our players in the “Bezzies” videos.
Salah is known to be one of the most humble players in the world, and he proved it once again as he allowed Firmino to complete his hat-trick.
Liverpool moved nine-points clear at the top of the table with the win, but many supporters spoke about the moment between Salah and Firmino on Twitter.
Salah could of taken the penalty to be top scorer….but no he gave it to Firmino to complete his hatrick

Note: Salah had the chance to become top scorer in the league by taking Liverpool’s second penalty – but he gave it away for Firmino to get a hat trick.

What Salah did today, Hazard won’t think of it. He had the opportunity to top the goal chart but gave Firmino his first Liverpool hattrick. I almost cried.

Salah giving the ball to Bobby Firmino to score his Hat-Trick is why I love this club. #YNWA #LFC #LIVARS

Salah (knowing he could be 1 a head on top goal scorer) but giving the penalty to Firmino so he could get his hat-trick is all the positivity I need today. ❤️

Salah giving up his penalty that would’ve made him top goal scorer to let Firmino have his hat trick, while Kane claims his teammate goals. The difference in class…
