The Brazilian has been sidelined since November after suffering an ankle injury in Liverpool’s 1-1 draw against Napoli in the Champions League. Now that it has been reported that the midfielder may be ready to return for Liverpool’s showdown with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s United side, it has led to lots of comments on Twitter.
It’s gonna be Fab, Gini and Hendo altogether again. Sorry for Ox, but this is a no brainer setup for Klopp.

What do we think?
At the time, Fabinho’s injury would have been a huge loss for Jurgen Klopp’s side. But now, given Liverpool’s stunning record since his injury, you could be forgiven for saying that the team hasn’t missed the midfielder at all. Fabinho’s return will provide Klopp with an extra option in midfield as the team looks to secure their first-ever Premier League trophy and regain their Champions League title.
