Liverpool star Fabinho has a ‘problem’ when he’s not surrounded by options in midfield because he’s ‘not like Thiago’.
That’s according to former Reds boss Rafael Benitez, who believes Fabinho has suffered more than most for Liverpool’s poor form this season.
The Brazilian has been a huge success since his move to Anfield from Monaco but his form has dipped considerably this term, as Jurgen Klopp’s men have faltered in the Premier League.
The German has switched formations this season, in a desperate attempt to revive his side’s form.
Klopp has moved away from his traditional 4-3-3 system to a 4-2-3-1 and has also played a diamond in midfield to stem the tide of bad results.
