    we still haven't lost a game when he and Fab have started a game together.

    wow.

    he's on a different level than just about any other player in the Prem.

    if only he was 5 years younger ....

    I think the record was Virgil never losing a PL game.

    not retired, but they didn't call him up for the current games, so he gets a nice rest. good!

    Klopp doesn't know you! Plus - I think you'll be willing to eat crow on this.

    He's so good. I love seeing him and Naby contributing and playing like they have been. Klopp is a genius.

    I've never doubted his skill or ability or talent.
    I will, however, continue to question his ability to remain fit. I'm sure glad we're enjoying a spell of fitness at the moment.

    Yup I've been a Thiago doubter for the same reasons - absolutely world class player but can he stay fit? Loving his current fitness and form.

    Definitely one of the best CMs in the world.

    But he has been injury prone since breaking out in Barcelona and that wont change into his 30s, especially with the intensity of the Premier League.

    That said, you wont find players of his calibre on the transfer market... Pedri from Barca is the closest you will get.

    This man exemplifies class in everything he does. Watch his interaction with his teammates, other players, staff, etc…treats everyone with such respect.

    Unbelievable he’s a Red.

    Poor guy. Incredible footballer when in his element, just couldn't stay healthy for us.

    He'll always have that insane goal, at least.

    While he was never robust over his career - it's started off in terrible fashion as he was assaulted by Richarlison and missed 4 months in his first season here.
