Fabinho

Jurgen Klopp is adamant that Fabinho will eventually get into the side and contribute, despite the fact the Brazilian summer signing has yet to play a minute of competitive football.

The 24-year-old did well for his country during the international break, winning a penalty against USA in a 2-0 win, but is still not expected to start against Tottenham tomorrow.

Klopp told today’s press-conference, cited by James Pearce on Twitter, that he’s not worried about Fabinho and that his situation mirrors that of Andrew Robertson and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Both the Brits arrived in 2017, but it took a few months for them to get into the side and contributing regularly.

Robertson is now one of the first names on the team-sheet, and Oxlade-Chamberlain was performing phenomenally well until a cruel injury ended his season and the entirety of this one as well.

We have full confidence that Fabinho will have a similar impact once he’s tactically up to speed.
