Speaking on the Premier League’s YouTube channel, Emerson Royal has been discussing Liverpool’s Fabinho.

The Spurs ace was tasked with creating his ultimate five-a-side team made up of Brazilian players in the Premier League, and somewhat predictably, Fabinho made the cut in the middle of the park.

The ex-Monaco man has been an absolute star for Liverpool for many years at this point, and it’s fair to say that Emerson is a big fan.

Indeed, the Spurs defender labelled Fabinho as ‘top quality’, stating that he has a real fighting spirit.

What’s been said?

Emerson spoke about Fabinho.

“Fabinho is such a top quality player, he reads the danger well and he snuffs it out. He’s got a real fighting spirit, so for me, it’s Fabinho,” Emerson said.

What a player

Emerson says that Fabinho has a real fighting spirit, and that’s what makes the Brazilian such a fantastic player.

Liverpool have long been labelled as mentality monsters for their ability to always be focused, and no player epitomises that more than Fabinho.

The midfielder will always give 100 per cent, and while he’s not the flashiest of players, it’s hard to remember the last time he genuinely had a bad game for the club.

Yes, Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Sadio Mane get all of the headlines, but if Liverpool are to win a treble or a quadruple this season, Fabinho will be due an awful lot of credit for his contributions.
