Watch the game again ukiwa umetulia.
Fabinho was the best midfielder kwenye game ya jana, matter of fact ni game yake bora kabisa akiwa na LFC mpaka sasa,
I was scared baada ya kuona line up ya Everton, na nikaona Fabinho will get bullied kama game ya Arsenal, Gomes and Gueye are top class CMs and Marco Silva seems to get the best out of them, but Fabinho won the battle jana (have to say was one of the greatest midfield battles in the league so far, and shout out to Gomes, he was good)
Faby wanted to prove a point jana and he did it, with Firmino out of form and not pressing anymore, it was so easy kwa Gueye, Gomes and Siggy kuchukua mipira kwenye eneo lao na kudrive in the middle, but Faby controlled them, and eventually came out on top.
guess tumezoea kuona CDMs wetu wakikimbia uwanja mzima na kuvacate spaces katikati na ndiyo maana huwa tunakuwa open sana in the middle, but positional awareness ya Fabinho ndiyo ilikuwa deciding factor kwenye battle ya jana, the way he makes himself available for passes and open passing angles to his team-mates is what differentiate a top class DM na wengine.
he won most tackles y'day (6 out of 7), compeleted 50 of his 58 passes, made 5 ball recoveries and won the ball for his team-mates 14 times, 72 touches and 86% passing accuracy. what more do you want from a DM after that perfomance?
he doesnt run with no purposes, doesnt shout to the players or reeferees, doesnt commit useless fouls, he's just a quiety dude ambaye anajua anachokifanya uwanjani na anafanya kwa usalama zaidi, unajua kuwa Fabinho ni moja kati ya DM wenye yellow cards chache sana? na in his career as a DM hajawahi ku-receive a second yellow card.
amecheza dakika si chini ya 400 at LFC na tayari anaongoza kwa kupiga progressive passes to our front three by 33% followed closely by Keita, tunapolalamika hawa jamaa waanze kwenye games, huwa tunaangalia hivi vitu pia.
Firmino needs a rest, and Shaqiri should play as a 10 and not RW.
