Fabinho is a wonderful addition for Liverpool

Originally a fullback at Real Madrid's famed Castilla youth academy, Fabinho was converted to a holding midfielder in his time at Monaco, a move which has proven to be a brilliant switch for the towering Brazillian, possessing the ability as well as the physicality to pull off the job with aplomb, resulting in him playing a key role in guiding Monaco to the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2017.

Another brilliant switch has been the one Liverpool made to bring the Brazilian to Anfield. He has the physicality to cope with the rigours of the Premier League and prove to be a real calming influence in a Liverpool squad which is set up to be so fast and frenetic. His passing range and ability to pick a pass can give Jurgen Klopp's side a platform from which to play.

KEY STAT: Fabinho was the only Ligue 1 player to rank among the top six for tackling and passing last season.
