Philippe Coutinho

[manwiththestick]

It's been a while since we've had a player like him in the middle, deceivingly strong on the ball and exquisite passing. Everything I hoped Vladi would have been for us.

[Guest San Don]

I think this lad is something special. Read a post where someone was saying he couldnt last half a game but, conveniently forget he hadnt played for a number of weeks when we signed him plus, the PL is a lot quicker than Serie A.

 

The lad has such vision. Although slightly built he can pick a sublime pass. Good things ahead I think (and hope!).

[RobbieOR]

Too lightweight. Get rid.

[ZonkoVille77]

Just saw the highlights. He's pure class. What a pass.

And more importantly Code72 was totally wrong about him. Brilliant stuff all round.

[gmac]

Must say the pube headed one looks a find, think we obtained him for decent money as well, something amiss here.

[LFC 6 Times]

Wow, have been highly impressed but today he was nothing short of world class potientally our most shrewd signing for years.

[Nightcat]

He can be our Silva. Can we nurture him? We'll see.

[Saintslfc13]

He was brilliant today and should get even better with experience and training. One of my favorite things about his game is that despite being small he's not a pussy and will get in there physically against bigger players.

 

Admittedly I was worried when Debuchy tried to kill him but he seemed just fine after.

I agree with that completely. Several times yesterday he went shoulder to shoulder and came out on top. For a scrawny git he holds on to the ball well. His eye for a through ball is sublime, bordering on genius. He was the epicentre of everything good that happened, and he deserved a goal.

I loved how he just fucked off Ben Arfa

agree .. not enough bite..... ouch....

[Spy Bee]

If we could have another transfer window like the one we had in January I'd be extremely pleased.

[Jonjo Baldy]

Before January I would of said Coutinho who? Can't wait to see him next season!

[Paulie Dangerously]

Great signing so far

[Heinze]

So much class and maturity for such a young player.

[Gym Beglin]

I'm looking forward to seeing Borini and Coutinho together. Borini's movement is class, and Coutinho's vision and weight of pass is amazing.

 

I do think we need another player like coutinho, and the jury is out as to whether Suso or Texeira can do the same. My guess is they cannot, especially seeing as Coutinho is 20 and Suso is 19 and Texeira is 20.

 

Rodgers did say in Dec/Jan that his big aim was to bring in a proper number 10 in the Summer when we had more money. He then went and bought 20 year old Coutinho in January. Was that the signing he meant, or was Coutinho bought 'on the hoof' and with the future in mind? Either way, if he's not playing then there's nobody else like him.

[fowler9]

he is class, think we may well of arse fucked Inter with this deal

[Mathewbet1]

 

He make me feel like

Patience Funnee - a years' worth of development can be huge for young players and they do not all develop at the same rate either. The main thing is that they are working in an environment where it works for the type of player that they are, technical players with an eye for a pass. Who knows for sure where they are at 23-24? All I know is that I would rather be giving them the chance than, say, Carroll.

[Bjornebye]

he is fucking shit

[JermainePennant]

Signing players like coutinho is why I'm excited about the future of lfc under him,he seems to like going for attacking technical flair players who can do magic.At Swansea he was apparently raving about dos santos who would probably be the best they could attract at that level,it would have been a risk like coutinho but when you take risks on these kind of players and it works you end up with one of top players in Europe.

 

Also when he signed sturridge the way he was describing him was as if he signed him as a target man, I mean if sturridge a fast technical player is his idea as a target man up front it tells you about the kind of football he is looking to play.

My dad was properly buzzing from that. I had to agree. Amazing.

Suso doesnt have that turn of pace

 

But i think your wrong about texiera, he will make it here i think. He looks a brilliant player

[Ted]

Coutinho has the potential to go on and be one of the best players in the lague. A joy to watch.

Its so obvious Suso needs a season long loan at a PL team, preferably one that likes to play football, Saints or Wigan (if they stay up) would be ideal.
