Agree mate. Said the other week it's those two plus one other for me more often than not.
To me honest I still think we have some fans who don't truly appreciate that we have one of the world's best midfielders playing for us and Thiago still sits a little under the radar
Special footballer.
Completely agree.
You see criticisms that he's 'too loose' or 'gives the ball away easily' with no recognition of that fact that he's still a good number of games from hitting his peak form due to injury and other things blighting his time here at Liverpool.
Yesterday was probably my ideal midfield. Grift of Hendo*, vision of Thiago and the defensive intelligence of Fabinho. Get those three playing regularly and in time it'd be quite special. (Jernaine Jenas of all people said on MOTD that that combo had only played 3 times together beforehand.)
You could swap in Milner for Hendo at any time for that graft. Would give Thiago more space on the ball with one of Hendo or Milner.
