Thiago Alcantara has admitted he has not been happy with his form, since joining Liverpool last September, but believes he can prosper alongside "awesome" Fabinho.
The Spanish international has been out of action due to fitness issues, while he was accused of slowing down the Reds play when being on the pitch.
"I don't read a word about what people talk about me," he told TNT Sports Brasil:
"I know that I receive some criticism about my performances, but I'm not happy with my performance since I came here.
"A new club, a strange situation (COVID), I had a strong injury, so get to into the rhythm it was hard, but it's not an excuse.”
Speaking about Fabinho, the player added:
"He is a great player. He gives us a lot of confidence in our backs, and it's awesome to play alongside him.
"It frees me up a bit, I can move some lines forward and with that I can be more confident and player (nearer) with the strikers.
"I enjoy playing a bit more advanced because you're always near the goal and you can create chances and score. It's a nice position."
