Thiago Alcantara sends message to Liverpool fans on Twitter

Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara has taken to Twitter with a message for the Reds fanbase.

On Saturday, Liverpool ran out 2-0 winners over Burnley in front of a capacity crowd at Anfield.

The Reds had not played in front of a packed home crowd since March 2020 prior to this weekend.

Thiago joined Liverpool last September but Saturday was the first time he was able to experience an Anfield full of fans.

Thiago came on in the 81st minute of the match, replacing Naby Keita, and got the crowd excited with a superb turn.

After the game, the Spaniard took to Twitter with a heartfelt message for the fans.

Thanks for your warm welcome. #FullAnfield 😍 Great three points! #YNWA @LFC pic.twitter.com/FOXyUOMBgm

Liverpool took the lead in the 18th minute when Diogo Jota headed Kostas Tsimikas’ cross home.

Jurgen Klopp’s charges then made the points safe on 69 minutes when Sadio Mane finished off a fine team move.

The Reds back are in action next Saturday when they host Chelsea at Anfield in a 5:30pm kickoff.
