Yeah I thought he was decent last night, very unlucky with his tackle their the second goal.

Yes, I thought he was good. He was also unlucky with how the referee judged some of his tackles, Barcelona's gamesmanship held sway last night, it won't be the case at Anfield. That "free kick" still annoys me even now.

Must have watching a different game to many on here. He was good.

Nah, I was watching the same game. I just think he left too much space in front of the defence against the greatest player of all-time. That's probably on Klopp's instructions more than him though.

He was basically trying to mop up on his own , broke up play nicely a few times but needed help and very rarely got it.

Yep, we lacked discipline in the middle for whatever reason, especially after the second goal. At that point we were still well in the tie, yet we lost our heads a little.

We're still in it of course, but if we attack too much then Messi will find a lot of space. They will probably play Dembele too for his pace, so we need to be more compact as a side, even while striving for goals.

Surprised by the comments here. I was supporting him back in October when others were doubting him, but tonight wasn't his night in my view. Busquets got the better of him in quite a few aerial duels and his positioning in front of the defence was a little all over the place. I'm sure some of that was tactical though - he had a very tough job in there and wasn't poor by any means. But he wasn't great or even good either.

He'll learn a lot from that game though, as they all will.

My initial reaction was similar.

I think him, Gomez and VvD, and to a lesser extent Alisson, are in the same boat. They did OK and didn't really do a lot wrong. However, none of them had great games either. I'm taking 8, 9, 10 out of 10 performances. They were all 6 or 7 out of 10. Good but not great.

It's not a criticism but against Messi and their attack we probably needed everyone to be 8 out of 10 or above. Definitely in a defensive sense we needed it. We were a shade below that and Barcelona exploited it ruthlessly.

Messi runs into him, falls over, wins a free kick and we all know what happened next.

Fabinho, in our moment of need, remembers what happened to him three days before, realises the officials are stupid, runs into Ritchie, falls over, wins a free kick and we all know what happened next.

Why isn't he in a lab being examined as the first human with extendable legs?

Human octopus this lad.

It'll be called "The Fabinho Role" in 3 years.

I hope this is the next stage in our evolution.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #3650 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:02:05 pm »

Without hyperbole, that is the best central midfield performance I’ve ever seen. Booked after ten minutes and then puts in a performance like that against Messi and co. Incredible.

bird_lfc · « **Reply #3651 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:02:51 pm »

Holy shit was he up for it tonight. Fucking incredible .

DelTrotter · « **Reply #3652 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:04:02 pm »

To play like on a yellow, dear god!! I thought he was a cert to be sent off, not because he'd do anything wrong but the ref would punish him for anything but he didn't even give him a chance. Just ridiculous.

ShrewKop · « **Reply #3653 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:04:52 pm »

That tackle and driving run in the 93rd minute to win the free kick and take the pressure off was next level. What a game, what a player Fabinho is!

tubby · « **Reply #3654 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:06:32 pm »

Immense tonight, especially with an early booking. That run at the end was absolutely critical, cemented the win.

testies · « **Reply #3655 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:12:47 pm »

I celebrated the flying scissor on Suarez like a goal. So we won 5-0

Not knocking Emre Can, but we upgraded from him in the best way possible. Absolutely immense player.

El Lobo · « **Reply #3658 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:23:20 pm »

What an utter fucking monster tonight. I mean we had about 50,000 monsters but my word, utterly immense. Beautiful amount of filth and snide. Have that you fucking cheating c*nts. Hope he releases Messi from his pocket for next season.

Messi welcome to being in Fabinhos pocket!

Fantastic match by Fabinho, even by his standards. What a player.

what a first season... makes us better and he will improve...

aw1991 · « **Reply #3663 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:30:30 pm »

Underrated in his contribution this season. World class midfielder.

RyanBabel19 · « **Reply #3664 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:30:44 pm »

What a talent

The fact he put in that performance on a yellow for most of it is amazing

Musketeer Gripweed · « **Reply #3665 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:31:22 pm »

I could praise everyone on the pitch tonight, but this guy was absolutely superb, with that added wee bit of snideyish we could be doing with, to be honest.

Kekule · « **Reply #3666 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:32:10 pm »

Only €45 million? That’s another apologetic phone call we’re going to have to make.

Outstanding performance. Kept cool after the booking.

Perham · « **Reply #3669 on:** May 7, 2019, 10:37:50 pm »

My MOTM! He was everywhere honestly any time the ball went near him I knew we'd have it back and he's fast becoming one of my favouriten players although you can't really pick one out of these bunch of heroes!!!

Thought he was gonna be a goner after 20 minutes, was absolutely insane the entire game. The player we've been crying out for since Mascherano and then some.

El Lobo · « **Reply #3677 on:** May 7, 2019, 11:08:14 pm »

Think I cheered more for his run and foul at the end than any of the goals

Everyone was brilliant tonight, but Fabinho had his best game for us. Absolute quality.
