Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has praised "unbelievably valuable" Roberto Firmino after the Brazil forward ended his two-month Premier League goal drought in the 3-0 victory against Watford.
He also had a hand in Mohamed Salah's opener on Saturday and won the free-kick for Trent Alexander-Arnold to make it 2-0.
Firmino, who is playing a deeper role, has just six goals for club and country this season -- and only two in his past 15 outings -- but Klopp is in no doubt about the player's quality.
"In the game against Fulham, 20 German coaches were in the stadium," said Klopp.
"I'm not sure how the critics were but when I saw them and we had a drink together, they were saying 'Bobby Firmino. What a player.'
"Because of the small things he's doing, he's working so hard, he's here, he's there, he's got six goals but he opens 5,000 gaps for everybody."
"That makes him so unbelievably valuable for us. I'm really happy for him."
