If you stuck a ‘no.10’ on this guy’s back, you’d be forgiven for thinking Coutinho was getting a run-out for Liverpool’s Under-23s after watching this clip!
Yesterday, Yan Dhanda clinched a 1-0 victory for our second team with a goal that was utterly reminiscent of our returning Brazilian.

The English attacking midfielder, whose heritage is Indian, beat a man on the outside, before cutting in on his right foot and curling into the top corner.
In fact, it looks exactly like Coutinho’s goal against Everton in the Merseyside Derby last season!
Dhanda has bulked up over the summer and looks a different player – physically and technically.
Keep up the good work, Yan!
