Philippe Coutinho

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Can't dig out a pic of Coutinho, but they're out there somewhere. The two lads in buying beer every day* of the week, and getting hammered and ejected from the store.**




*probably not true
** almost certainly true

Coutinho's too innocent, he just got dragged along by that weasel Suarez

[Chris]

Great news!! What a bargain he's turned out to be.

[Slinky Skills]

Rodgers will still be referring to him as 'Young Phil' even when he's 50 ha ha!

16 - Philippe Coutinho has assisted the most @premierleague goals for Liverpool (16) since making his debut in the competition. Flair.

4th overall in the league in the same period too. Good going.

Rodgers' football smarm talk can sometimes grate... ...all this "serve the ball from behind", "press the game" etc. Come on man.

I find it really hard to listen to interviews with him. He's doing a good job job but it is hard to take the self congratulatory air, digs at players and the turn of phrase all combined.

Its weird because I can listen to him all day, knowing he has the kahunas to back it all up with action.

If I knew he couldn't back it up then yes I'd probably be in the same boat.

I do like him, however I wish he'd shut the hell up once in a while & actually let the team do the talking on the pitch...

I do find your unblinkered love of the guy funny Chief considering he's won FA yet.... & he hasn't 'backed any of his talk' up!

He comes a cross like a guy who could very easily lose his ground connection, like there is some mania in him waiting to blossom. Wish he kept a lower profile really.

Yeah, I'm a bit concerned too. I promised myself after my blind devotion to Houllier that I would never let that happen to me again. Its probably why I was more guarded against Rafa's achievements.

But the football I've seen from Rodgers for both Swansea and us far outdoes anything gone before. I think he is the one. So papa don't preach I'm having his baby.

I can't be fooked listening to a load of drivel from the managers. Just shut up and play football please.

Surely it would be easier for you just to watch football and skip any interviews, rather than expect managers to break contractual obligations and say nothing?

That's what I do mate. Like I said, I can't be bothered listening to them.

I draw no entertainment, insight or value from the manager's words. I do however from the football played on the pitch.
