Ian Wright labelled Liverpool star Roberto Firmino as 'elite' after the Brazilian striker sealed the vital 2-0 victory over Arsenal at the Emirates on Wednesday night.
The Reds number nine started the match on the bench but was called upon by manager Jurgen Klopp shortly after the start of the second half.
And Klopp's decision paid off as Firmino quickly added Liverpool 's second goal of the night after Diogo Jota had opened the scoring. The win means the Reds now sit just a single point behind Manchester City at the top of the Premier League.

Arsenal striker Wright took to his Twitter account to praise Firmino - also highlighting where he thinks the title will end up.
Wright said: "Firmino’s movement in such a small area to operate is why he’s elite. Small margins and more depth. LFC to win the title. Our boys did good, we getting there."
