# Liverpool: Reds fans go wild for injury update ahead of Arsenal

**Speaking in his [pre-match press conference](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/430177-jurgen-klopp-arsenal-fitness-update-firmino-henderson), Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that attacker Roberto Firmino is in contention to face Arsenal this evening after missing three matches prior to the international break with a knock – prompting many Reds supporters to go wild for this news.**

Firmino arguably hasn’t displayed the same brilliant form at times over 2020/2021 as supporters have seen him produce in the past, with talkSPORT pundit Jamie O’Hara recently suggesting he should [become a bit-part player](https://talksport.com/football/845687/liverpool-roberto-firmino-new-striker-jurgen-klopp-jamie-ohara-simon-jordan/) for the Reds.

However, as Klopp’s side aim to finish a disappointing title defence as strongly as possible, with Liverpool [still in contention](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table) for a Europa League spot, Firmino’s possible presence could come as a boost in the form of another option.

As the Reds boss confirms he is indeed in contention to face Arsenal, many Liverpool fans buzzed over this news – with one supporter wowed whilst calling the update ‘another boost’.

These fans, ahead of the clash tonight, will be hoping the Brazilian can add to his [six goals and seven assists in all competitions](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/roberto-firmino/leistungsdaten/spieler/131789) if he is in fact selected by Klopp.

Find all of their reactions to this injury update down below.
