Fabinho won Liverpool fans’ hearts with a solid full debut on Saturday.

It might’ve taken a few months, but Fabinho has finally made his full Premier League debut for Liverpool.

The Brazilian midfielder impressed on Saturday as Liverpool thumped Cardiff City 4-1 at Anfield to move top of the Premier League, at least until Monday night.

Fabinho, who hadn’t played a league game for the Reds until last weekend, managed the full 90 minutes on what was an excellent bow – and one that included a magnificent tackle on the edge of his own box at one point.

The former Monaco man cost Liverpool a cool £39 million during the summer, and here is how fans of the Merseyside club reacted to his post-match message:

It wasn’t a flawless full debut, because there were a few loose passes at times, but on the whole it was an excellent showing and one that manager Jurgen Klopp will have surely liked.

This is a player who is going to get better and better as he continues to adapt to life in England, and it’s worrying for Liverpool’s Premier League rivals that they have such strength in depth.
