Klopp reveals Fabinho's birthday present

Jurgen Klopp praised Fabinho for responding to the "birthday present" of being selected in his favourite position with a fine display against Red Star Belgrade. He made only his second start in the 4-0 win at Anfield on Wednesday, a day after turning 25, and thrived alongside Georginio Wijnaldum at the base of the midfield. "Very good. Very, very good," Klopp said when asked about Fabinho's performance at a post-match news conference. "The present for his birthday was not that he was in the line-up, it was that we played his favourite system with a double-six! "He played really well and it was good to see. He was very aggressive and everything was there. "For his first game for a while, his second from the beginning, it was good, really good. It is quite impressive what people saw."
