Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher, has singled out midfielder Fabinho for criticism after his performance in the Reds’ Premier League 2-1 defeat against Leeds United on Saturday.
Carragher described Fabinho as a ‘ghost’ in the midfield during the encounter at Anfield, adding that Leeds United players easily dribbled past him.
Liverpool came into the game on the back of a demoralizing 1-0 loss against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground last week.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp went with a midfield trio of Fabinho, Thiago Alcantara and Harvey Elliott.
But Fabinho was nowhere to be seen on a number of occasions when Leeds United launched counterattacks.
The Brazilian was beaten too easily by Leeds players and seemed to be one step behind Jesse Marsch’s men in a number of crucial moments.
“Fantastic from Leeds, going right through Liverpool’s midfield like they were not there.
“Fabinho was like a ghost, he went past him that easily,” Carragher said on Sky Sports.
