I can see Fabinho playing 10 or 12 games at CB to limit the game time required for our 4 injury prone non Virgil's. There we will plenty more West Ham's were a proper CB isn't required and enough cover in his actual position were he may struggle for minutes.

Really hope you're wrong. I really want to see him in the position which we bought him for, anchoring the midfield.

 

He looked class there all preseason.

Think he is playing further forward -- maybe Arnaud can attest but he scored a nice goal over the weekend and there seems to be a highlight every couple of weeks of him busting through the middle in opposing teams third after either winning the ball high up the pitch or turning in possession.

Klopp doesn't rush anything, Robbo can attest to that. When Fabinho is fully up to speed he will play but 25% of the season could be over by the time that happens.

 

The way I see it Keita is a banker, he will spilt playing time with Lalanna, 80%/20% in Naby's favor. At least one of Milner or Henderson will play every game. Gini will get his fair share too, so I predict about 25 starts for him across all competitions, Fabinho will get about 30, of which 20 will be in midfield.

I thought I read that Rabiot signed a new contract.

 

Must have dreamt it.

We shared the same dream.

 

Edit: There was a story that he had agreed a new contract a couple of weeks ago but it looks likely that was premature and he has not signed it.

If we got Rabiot on a feee doesn't he play the 6 role?

 

Leaves Fabinho,Henderson and him.

Are we going more 4-2-3-1?

 

No. In fact Rabiot hates playing holding midfield. Him and his ma have actively told everyone this in the media. He'd be a box-to-box.

 

His attitude is awful. Truly a dick. But his ability may be too good to refuse if he actually wanted to come. He's a bit of a freak talent and is perfect for a pressing side.

Right

Always read he was quality but thought he was more of a deep lying player.

Echo saying we will listen to offers for Klavan! Seems a bit stupid

It's a confusing article that, they will listen to offers but Klopp is not actively trying to sell him. That's a bit like me going on eBay and saying that I have 100 CDs that I would listen to offers for but I'm not really interested in selling them. 

 

Are they selling him or keeping him? Seems like a bit of clickbait to me.
