Liverpool fans are still remaining in hope that this can be the year silverware comes back to Anfield.
So far, that statement is starting to become more and more believable after every game whilst Liverpool preserve their unbeaten run in the Premier League.
Nevertheless, Chelsea and Manchester City also have that immaculate league records, with the latter looking set to continue their dominance in English football, despite Liverpool’s recent revival.
It remains obvious that Liverpool still have to improve, that’s why it was such a surprise to see Sports Mediaset linking Fabinho with a move away from the club in January last week, having only joined Anfield in the summer.
Although he has failed to make a real impact as of yet in his four Premier League appearances, Fabinho only last season was an extremely important player for Monaco and one that possesses a lot of quality.
What could selling Fabinho in January mean for Liverpool…
Squad depth takes a big blow
Squad depth is something Manchester City have over every team in the league, with each and every position packed with a number of stars that could help win a game for the Citizens.
So if Liverpool sold Fabinho this early, not only would their midfield be depleted, at least whilst they look for a replacement, but the Brazilian is a quality player, as he has shown in glimpses so far in the red of Liverpool.
Simply the wrong decision
This was a deal that Liverpool worked hard to get over the line and to give up on him after just six months could prove to be a poor mistake.
Yes, they have a variety of other midfielders but they must give time to Fabinho to find his feet in the challenging Premier League.
