Manchester United fans took great delight in our Champions League Final defeat, despite the fact they lost to Sevilla in far more embarrassing circumstances in the Last 16…
So for Liverpool to steal one of their primary transfer targets feels great.
Last night, we secured Fabinho ahead of Jose Mourinho’s side, with Duncan Castles claiming in Yahoo the Brazilian fell in Love with Jurgen Klopp’s project when he met our manager and told his agent that it was Liverpool or nothing.

On Twitter, a number of United fans lamented the loss, while a large section acted like they never wanted Fabinho in the first place – which is hilariously inaccurate.
We’ve already secured Naby Keita, too – in what could well be one of the most exciting transfer windows in the club’s history.
Liverpool must sign a new keeper, while another inside-forward and a playmaker would boost us too.
Check out the salty United tweets, below!
Last thing on Fabinho. Gutted he’s going to Liverpool. Great addition for them.
But, José Mourinho and Manchester United’s scouts know more than fans watching YouTube compilations or the odd Monaco game.
I’d say allowing them a free run at Van Dijk was a bigger mistake.

If Liverpool get Fabinho then Mourinho is losing it. His agent is Jose's!!!

To all the Liverpool fans trying to banter me about Fabinho. He's a top player. Not gonna lie. Wanted him at United for the last two years. Well done.
I now hope he flops
