Well now we have a player thread for Fabio Aurelio our first ever Brazilian!
Decent left back, needed time to adapt but I believe he is not as bad as many make him out to be. Has one heck of a shot on him with some crisp passing, a player I don't want us to let go off as I believe he has more to offer!

He talks pretty good English too !

You know......we might just see a new player now that he's scored his first goal (and what a goal it was!). I reckon he was losing alot of confidence when all of those decent open play shots go just wide.

But lets not jump the gun, he needs to sort out his defending (and free kicks?) before he becomes a reliable full back because thats what we need right now.

This player is definitley twice the player Riise is. I can't see what Riise can offer apart from 100mph shots which travel wide high and hansome (like Richobaz) at every attempt!

He seems to be a good player once he gets a run of games behind him, the problem is every time he does he goes & gets injured again & we're back to square one. On his day I would definitely say he is a better player than Riise, but we do still need someone more defensively minded to play on the left too. I would sell Riise in the summer & get someone moore defensive, for me Fabio gets one more season to prove he can stay relatively injury free.

fabio is definately a better option at left than riise, fair enough his defending isnt quite up to speed but either is riise's. what you do get with aurelio is a flying left-back that is much more effective than riise on attacks but will always get back when posession is lost. good cross, good dribbling ability, decent pace and as we saw yesterday a brilliant left peg!

I think he had a decent game yesterday, scoring a great goal certainly helps.  On the other hand I thought he had an awful game against Middlesbrough.

If he can build on the Bolton game and improve I will be more than pleased but the jury is still out as far as I'm concerned.  From a Liverpool point of view I hope he stuffs my words straight back down my throat.  After all it's the team' success I'm really interested in.  My ego can take a bashing as long as we are successful. Evil.

Found a couple of clips -

He once WAS good at free-kicks. And have to admit his one against Fulham wasn't half-bad, the Keeper played a blinder. Can't find his goal yesterday, but F***ing amazing.

Maybe if he works hard enough in training, he can be the new Roberto Carlos at free kicks.

He is a great player and a good taker of free kicks aswell and will show it when he has alot of confidence.

His downside is his defending, at times he can be a rock and bothing will get past him but when his defending is bad its terrible his man gets past him and their gone. I really want him to succeed though, have wanted him to score for ages and I hope he will push on from this now.

Good performance from Fab yesterday, about time anyway, how many times has riise had a thread eh!

If Aurelio could play like he did yesterday, I would not have an argument in rafa keeping him and letting soft lad go.

He is a Liverpool player at the end of the day, your lucky I'm not going to start a Jermaine Pennant thread! Well not yet anyway...
