Fabio "FABINHO" TAVARES: 2020/21

One of these things.

They were really big in the 80s, which was possibly the last time we started with the same centre half pairing in two consecutive games.

I remember that match.

Our shirts were knitted from the finest wool and the leather ball got waterlogged from the muddy pitch.

We seem cursed with players who get niggles
 Wonder if we rushed him back from his last niggle!

I think Fabinho was out for a game (or two) recently as well. I think it’s actually good, the chap needs a break anyway.

it’s Hodgson’s CV.

Edit: perhaps I should have said 'arry Kanes CY?

Fab’s been doing some rehab, along with Virgil and Joe.

Keep him nice and juicy for the Sheffield game.
Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago midfield incoming. :heart_eyes: :star_struck:

Clickbait headline ruined by me putting this in a particular thread giving the game away as to who he picks (although that’s only a short part of the article);

To be honest I would have mentioned that as good defending if we hadn’t thrown it away 5 minutes later.

That was a beautiful body check in the world of NHL (ice hockey).

I am probably very wrong but I suspect we would never have heard the last of it if that had been Maguire on Salah
:thinking:

The wailing and gnashing of teeth would have been unbearable. :roll_eyes:

Clear yellow because it was tactical but i think we are not seeing enough bodychecks in today’s game and I don’t think every bodycheck should be booked.

You have been watching too much of that silly American game :wink:

The one played with crash helmets and fat suits.

Hockey (Ice, I mean) is great! I stopped watching after the players strike/owners lock out.

On top of that, Toronto Maple Leafs hasn’t won Stanley Cup since '66-67.

I still love a proper body check (not intend to injure type), but not in football.

Miss the days of players like Gerrard, Carragher and Xabi Alonso putting in some dangerous tackles in derbies and against ManU but on the other hand also happy that those kind of tackles are no more.

But bodychecks? Not really dangerous. We’re playing football and not basketball (another silly American game).

Depends. That one yesterday was a clear yellow, no discussion there. Sterling on Virgil in the CL a few years ago wasn’t even a foul in my opinion.

Kid needs a Fabinho Bodycheck.

Great skills though.

Shame he didn’t do any skills on how and when to shoot we could have shown the team that.

He was ridiculous last night. Struggled with passing, interception, pressing, the whole lot. Glad that we have just one game left. We would be lost in the sea without our lighthouse.
