I hope he's not looking to bulk up, theres really no need to in the modern game. A quality player, a little disappointing last season, but you just know he has the ability to be great.

Absolutely outstanding. His ceiling is scarily high along with Sterling and Markovic.

Not bulk up, just improve his core strength as Sterling has done. You can see Phil's done that to some degree already, he's muscling players off the ball, which he could never have done in his first season with us.

And Ibe So many great young players in our ranks, right through to the u21s and u19s

[danperkins]

Playing in between the midfield and striker orchestrating things, he looks fantastic.. hate to see him play out left. Just needs to that consistency in his game & a bit more production. Has looked our best player pre season IMO... absolutely immense talent, huge season ahead.

[McDermotX]

Excellent stuff from him yesterday....couple of wrong options taken, but that's always gonna happen with players such as him, not to mention of his age.
At the heart of nearly everything positive.

[Boogs]

I just hope he does get his head turned by Madrid or Barca next summer, him or Sterling.

I hope rather the opposite tbh.

Coutinho gets Brazil call up

Philippe Coutinho has been called up by Brazil for their forthcoming international friendlies in the United States.

The Liverpool playmaker has been named in new coach Dunga's 22-man squad for the matches with Colombia in Miami on September 5 and Ecuador in New Jersey on September 9.

Coutinho has one cap for Brazil, which he earned in a friendly against Iran in October 2010.


In retrospect I bet he's glad he's not associated with the old guard

[Kenneth]

Annoying. Pleased for him of course.

Was awful on the weekend, needs to man up and get his foot in instead of shirking tackles the flange.

He's going to injure himself the way he bottles tackles.
