Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is again full of praise for Brazilian left-back Fabio Aurelio.

He said: "Fabio is a fantastic professional, a fantastic person and a fantastic player.

"You can see on the pitch his left foot is amazing.

"When he scored at Old Trafford I wasn't surprised because when he was with me at Valencia he scored five goals in one season all from free-kicks.

"I am really pleased with him because if you know him as a player and as a professional he is amazing.

"If he can play games in a row and stay fit then we will see the best of him."
