Jurgen Klopp has spoken about Fabinho’s time at Anfield and hopes the Brazilian can adjust to other systems at Liverpool.
The midfielder played against Everton in a crazy Merseyside derby and Klopp deployed a 4-2-3-1 formation. The Reds have switched their formation between a 4-3-3 and a 4-2-3-1 this season, and the manager claimed (h/t Mirror
) Fabinho has to make some adjustments to his game:“So far, for Fabinho, it feels very familiar together with another No.6 in the centre.
“But of course he has to [play in other systems] and he will.
“The difference is not that big. We adapt to our defensive players as a unit and our attacking players as a unit with slight adjustments depending on the skills.”
The German further spoke about playing with a high back-line if we have quick centre-backs.
“That’s how it is. If you have quick centre-halves, you can defend higher.
“Then the ball in behind isn’t a problem. That’s what we have to do in these situations.”
Liverpool return to action on Wednesday as they face Burnley away. The Clarets might be 19th
in the Premier League but they are never easy to face.Klopp has some selection headaches as Jordan Henderson is back from his suspension and James Milner didn’t play in the derby either.
