Liverpool midfielder Fabinho had some kind words for coach Jurgen Klopp and his training methods.

Fabinho joined the Reds from Monaco last summer and, despite a difficult start to the season, has established himself as an important figure in Jurgen Klopp’s team.

The 25-year-old, who has made 17 appearances in all competitions this term, praised Klopp for his quality training sessions and eye for detail.

“He never lets up, doesn’t matter what time of the day it is, the quality and intensity of training, concentration too. He wants us to always give everything, even in training, so that we reproduce that in matches,” he told L’Equipe.

“And since I have spent time on the bench, I have watched how he is during matches. He screams, shouts instructions, he is electrifying!”

“When you have the ball at your feet, you have less time to react. You always have one or two opponents on your back. In France, I was able to turn. Here, your reaction time has to be very quick. And the physical impact hurts. These guys resist in duels and jump high.”
