Fabinho has posted on his Instagram story that his Liverpool teammate, Konstantinos Tsimikas, is a ‘monster’ and ‘so good’.

The left-back may have only played in two Premier League games for Liverpool last season and that for five minutes.

But it seems as though he has already impressed Fabinho on the training pitch.

Fabinho was doing a Q/A on his Instagram account and he seemingly got a message from Tsimikas that simply read “You are my idol.”

And Liverpool’s midfield engine responded to that comment with this brilliant message:

“This guy is a monster,” said Fabinho. “So strong, so good. This guy is my idol. @Tsimikas21.”

Well, with Andy Robertson ahead of you in the pecking order, it’s going to be pretty difficult to dethrone the Scotsman from his throne.

Whilst Liverpool had many injury problems across their defensive line last season, one man that remained intact was Robertson himself.

That didn’t help Tsimikas with his game time, but it will be interesting to see how Jurgen Klopp uses his talents this time around.

Perhaps rotation might be in order for Klopp, who will surely be wary at his players going through another injury crisis next season.
