Fabinho

[Tatterdemalion]

i imagine fabinho, keita and henderson will be our starting midfield. anyone who tries to come through our middle with find the ball coming right back at them.

Might take some of the pressure off Henderson and allow him to pay a little further forward as well.

Looks mint!
What number will he wear?

2 - Clyne will give it up

i think fabinho will play behind henderson, who will take the box to box or mezzala role.

Yeh I was thinking he might get the pizzas in as well.

We’ve not had a top quality DM since Mascherano but this guy looks Fab. Masch used to follow play and if an attack broke down he’d stop counterattacks before they could get going. Fab does exactly the same over and over again in that highlights vid. Looks strong, mobile, comfortable on the ball, exactly what we need.

Time to get excited

Looks like he plays like Vieira. At least he seems to have some character and actually like playing football, some of them look like they don't care these days. Welcome and good luck.

This feels like the time when Man Utd signed Roy Keane from Forest and you knew he was going to be really good.

Ridiculous stats

Jesus

IS the goal stat a bit misleading? presuming they were mostly pens?

[Shaggy]

Aye all pens bar one I think

Nearly all pens. Although I think he's taken 19 pens for Monaco and scored all of them!
