Fabinho has been influential in Liverpool's midfield.

Just like how Alisson has been great between the goalposts, Fabinho has been equally influential in the midfield. The former Monaco player made 120 recoveries and had a tackle success of 59%. The 24-year-old enjoyed a slow start to his career at Anfield and made his first appearance in the Premier League in late October.

While fans see his hardwork at the heart of the midfield, Klopp has commented that the defensive midfielder is not at his best. He has a high passing accuracy of 85.3% in the Premier League. His accurate passes from deep down help his side to transition from defence to attack rapidly.

In Europe, the Brazilian made 1.4 clearances and 2.5 tackles per match. Although Liverpool failed to win the domestic title, they have a go at lifting the Champions League trophy. Fabinho's presence in the midfield will surely help limit Tottenham's attacking threat and allow the Reds to dominate in possession.
