Many Liverpool fans have wondered why it has taken so long for Fabinho to be unleashed on the team following his summer arrival from Monaco.
Manager Jurgen Klopp has maintained that the Brazilian has not been ready to take on the demands of the Premier League.
On Wednesday night, Fabinho was handed his full debut in a third round EFL Cup clash against Chelsea at Anfield.
The midfielder played 87 minutes of the fixture, which ended in a 2-1 loss for the Reds – their first defeat of the season.
The 24-year-old, who is valued at £40.5m by Transfermarkt, did little to inspire in the middle of the park as his tackling and passing was disappointing.
The fact that Klopp started the Brazilian suggests that the summer signing is edging closer to being ready for regular action, but has this Saturday’s Premier League clash against Chelsea come too soon?
