Liverpool fans online have lambasted Fabinho following his lackluster performance against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Saturday (22 October).The Reds suffered a shock 1-0 defeat at the hands of the newly-promoted side at the City Ground. Former Liverpool forward Taiwo Awoniyi scored the only game of the game.The Reds' midfield did cause some concerns prior to the start of the game. Due to their recent injury issues, manager Jurgen Klopp decided to name a midfield comprising of the likes of Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones. The Reds were without both Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita for their trip to face Nottingham Forest.Fabinho had a poor showing against Steve Cooper's side. According to Sofascore, the Brazilian midfielder lost possession 11 times over the course of the 90 minutes. He also made only one tackle in the entire game, which is something expected a lot more from a defensive midfielder.Liverpool fans on Twitter made their feelings about Fabinho's performance clear. Some stated that this was the Brazilian midfielder's worst performance in a red shirt, while others believe he should be sold in the upcoming transfer window.Here are a few tweets from outraged fans in that regard:Laurie@LFCLaurieI thought Fabinho was bad midweek, but this is next level.Slow, doesn’t intercept anything.
