In all seriousness though do you guys think Fabio will in time become our regular LB? A few years ago I would have said definately, but he hasn't impressed me much at QPR from what I've seen. Rafael on the other hand is looking like he will become a top class full back
I don't think he has had as much chance to develop as rafael. He needs to go on loan to a decent football team. Was talking on here to a few qpr fans an they said he has had a few good games but when you consider their whole team are not great it's difficult for a defender to be seen to play well in a struggling team. I'd like to see him on loan again next season but somewhere like west brom or Swansea.
Maybe, hes had it rough compared to Rafael really. Not played anywhere near the amount of games for United and unlike Rafael who has been given the chance to make the RB spot his own, Evra has meant Fabio has little chance just now. Wouldn't pay much attention to what hes been like at QPR. Give him a season of regular football at United and he will quickly catch up to Rafael. Question is, will he get it.
I hope you guys are right, as it would be quite something to have 2 twins, 1 right footed and the other left on either side of defence. As both are quite attack minded I've always wondered if both would end up being wingers. It would cause defences big problems if they were switching flanks as they wouldn't know which ones which
Isn't Fabio right footed? I mean he is Fabio after all, he can hardly put a foot wrong. Rafael has played as winger a few games this season and looked a but lost. He seems to do better hen he's overloading the right side on a run down the right when there's a winger already occupying a defender or two. That's not to say Fabio couldn't make it as a winger. When they first arrived, apparently Fabio was the better of the two, but like someone else states early he's not going to get minutes over Evra. Rafael had the luxury of only have the geriatric Gary Neville and a few CBs playing on the right to compete with.
He wouldn't get a game at Swansea, young Williams is current left back with original first choice Taylor to come back from injury. Know **** about the Baggies though so he could be a good fit there. Or Liverpool, as their team is in the main **** and Fabio could only improve them.
