Roberto Firmino has vowed to keep title-chasing Liverpool on track for glory as he insisted: “I'm never satisfied.”

The Reds' No 9 says his pride at recently becoming the highest scoring Brazilian in Premier League history is mixed with a burning desire to raise the bar even higher.

Firmino netted his 11th goal of the season in last weekend's thrilling 4-3 win over Crystal Palace. It was his 45th league goal for the club.

“I'm very proud but really I don't want to stop there,” Firmino said.

“I want to crack on and grow and develop even further and make a name for myself.

“I am proud but never satisfied. I always want more, to grow and develop further every day with objectives and targets to achieve.

"You have to deserve to score through hard work, running and helping the team. Consequently marvellous things happen."

Firmino's tally of 54 appearances for Liverpool last term was higher than any other player and he's been involved in all 31 games in all competitions so far this season.

“I'm really happy to be playing all the time of course and I'm in good physical health, thank God,” he added.

“As long as I'm fit I want to play all the time, helping the team towards victory. I'm very content and hope to be playing even more.”

Firmino has hit a rich vein of form since celebrating the first hat-trick of his professional career in the 5-1 demolition of Arsenal last month. It was a moment to cherish.

“Yes, I loved it. For some time now I've been wanting to score my first hat-trick so I was really happy,” he told Liverpool's matchday programme.

“My team-mates all signed the ball afterwards and it's already on display on my wall next to the man of the match trophy.

“It was a very special day and hopefully there will be more to come during my career.”

Firmino completed his treble from the penalty spot after Mo Salah handed the ball over to him.

"I wasn't surprised but I was really happy with his unselfish act and once again I thank him for that," Firmino said.
