2016 Summary: All in all, Fabinho had a decent year for the Philadelphia Union. He appeared in 29 of 34 games for the Union at left back, usually next to Richie Marquez. At times, the Brazilian left back augmented the Union’s offensive attack and was a key part of the Union’s defense. At other times, his willingness to jump into the attack meant the Union’s defense had to account for his absence.
What did he do right?: Fabinho’s marauding up the left wing and overlapping runs with Chris Pontius allowed both he and Pontius to get more into the attack.
