Lot's of good points on this thread which really shows who well our players are integrated into a single cohesive team. I've gone for Fabinho, I always think the pundits miss the importance of the defensive midfielder to a succesful team. He is one of the most consistent players we have. Our game is one of possession, when we don't have the ball our aim is to win it back as quickly as possible. We are immense at this, our co-ordinated pressing starting from the front usually results in regaining possession after the 2nd/3rd pressing phase. We are also very careful not to lose the ball when we have it. Fabinho is the master at winning the ball back, he is so clever and tracking a player and putting in a well timed tackle or interception. I don't see anyone else who can do this, Hendo can cover if needed but not with the same effectiveness so I've gone for Fabinho.
