Welcome Fabinho

[Hus]

?

Bad attempt at humour ie he can play in goal!

 

I expect its part ownership or something like that.

On Saturday we had 2 half fit lads to come on in the biggest game in world football. Why the f*** would we be pushing out our captain?

 

I'm not saying he's finished. But if he can't get into the line up for the big games anymore then should he be captain? It's just we've spent 150m on Ox, Keita and Fabinho (facts) so you'd imagine Klopp would want to use them three as much as possible. And then there's Gini who Klopp also signed himself and maybe the Fekir will come. So that's five top players for what? a quarter of a billion who you'd imagine playing, and Jamez Milner. Maybe the plan is just to move Hendo into one of the 8's and be even more awesome. You saw it when he was benched against United. I'm thinking give Virg the armband and let Hendo fall a bit down the pecking order. Your captain has to be the first name on the sheet.

[D.Boon]

Struggling to see how Gini gets picked ahead of Henderson.

[Flasher]

Arsenal tried a late bid for Fabinho apparently

f***ing oddball.

Hendo is the best midfielder at the club mate.

Reminds me of Didi watching that clip. Lanky, keeps the ball moving forward and the occasional drive forward.

Anybody actually seen him play?

Klopp, the scouts and Nebraska red have, that's all that matters

[Farmer's Tan]

Is he a controller like Jorginho or more of a Mascherano.

[crisps]

Just saw the photo on Instagram and thought we’d signed a new coach or something, safe to say he looks a little older than 24!

 

Still - a DM

[DPD1973]

a DM who scores a goal every 8 games, that's just bananas!

Arsenal tried a late bid for Fabinho apparently

Emery tried to bring him to PSG last summer along with Mbappe.

[Ibby]

we've moved quickly after it was clear jorginho was going elsewhere. bravo to all those at the club who have done this on the quiet.

 

we've needed a player like this for a long time. a player who will sit and keep it ticking and break up play when required. add to this him being hard as nails and snide. I'm made up!

He takes penalties.

[DazzlaJ]

He takes penalties.

 

So does my wife when she back chats.

[honourablegeorge]

He's a Jorge Mendes player, surprised to hear that

Amazing from Fyds.

 

“We had various lists from journos, those referred to as ITKs, fans throwing names about like confetti...not a one got a sniff of Fabinho. I said last summer we'd had a look at him and Monaco were not selling. Didn't see this coming. Expect more 'WTF' signings, ignore the 'voices'.”

[stressederic]

‘Ignore the voices’ is fairly ironic advice...

[DPD1973]

will he be ignoring these voices?!?!?!?!

[Nebraska Red]

Klopp, the scouts and Nebraska red have, that's all that matters

I did email a few vids to Jurgen.

[Andy-oh-six]

Didi was the player I was thinking of watching that clip!

 

I also thought he looked a bit s***. So hopefully this post looks absolutely absurd soon.
