Liverpool has changed me says Fabinho

Liverpool midfielder Fabinho has claimed that Liverpool has changed him ahead of his 50th Reds appearance if, as expected, he features in Sunday’s Premier League blockbuster at Chelsea.

The Brazil international had a difficult start to his time at Liverpool following a £39.3million move from Monaco in the summer of 2018 but has now truly established himself as one of Liverpool’s key players after some impressive performances in the second half of last season. Fabinho has taken last season’s form into this season as well but has admitted that he initially struggled with the intensity of Liverpool’s style of play under Jurgen Klopp as well as the language barrier.

“Definitely I am different,” said Fabinho. “Liverpool has brought me up to the highest level of my career. I can win titles with Liverpool that I have always dreamed of.

“We are a winning team and a great team to play for with the players and coaching team we have. Everything around Liverpool, the competition for places, is really good and pushes us on to be even better.

“Bringing all of that together has made me a better player, definitely.”

Fabinho is aiming to extend the club’s record to 15 successive league victories when they visit Stamford Bridge on Sunday and claims that these records are important.

And Fabinho said: “I know these are numbers, but they are very important numbers for us.

“It shows how consistent our team is and that’s really important for a team like ours which looks to do important things in the Premier League. I hope we continue like this like we did last season and that we get even better this season.

“I don’t think the defeat at Napoli will make us lose our momentum, we will continue trying to play well and be focused on our objectives.

“We’ve had a great start in the league and need to keep winning. We’re playing in the same style and doing what we’re used to.”
