Liverpool midfielder Fabinho is enjoying his new role this season.

Fabinho is loving his role as the Reds anchor.

The Brazil star told the club's official website: “I've always liked to play in this position.

“You get to participate a lot in the game and have an important role in the creation of play. On the defensive side of things, you have to be very alert to help the team.

“I try to remain calm with the ball at my feet, though not letting the calmness become slowness. I try to control the game.

“The style of our team is intensity – we try and apply maximum speed and pressure, that's what we work towards.

“That's why the group are always so well prepared physically to impose this rhythm in games.

“I can't be left behind, you have to keep up with the rhythm of my teammates and maintain the high speed, pressure and intensity. That's what I always aim to do."
