World class Philippe Coutinho statistic emerges from Southampton triumph

Posted by

Philippe Coutinho continues to make the thought of him leaving somewhat unbearable.

Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Southampton saw the Brazilian reaffirm himself as a primary foundation to the Reds’ attacking dominance.

The No.10’s goal and assist for Mohamed Salah means he has now been involved in 14 goals in his last 15 Premier League appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s side.

Coutinho thrived in the deeper midfield position he occupied, taking on the role of an NFL quarterback feeding the explosive wide receivers ahead of him.

His classy display served as a reminder of the world class talent Klopp has at his disposal, but also the world class talent that Barcelona are threatening to take away.

Despite pushing for a move to Spain during the summer, Coutinho has since displayed no signs of being distracted by his personal ambitions, nor has he let his worth ethic drop.

Saturday’s game marked only the fourth time this season that Coutinho, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino have played together.

The results of the quartet taking to the field proved to be a teasing glimpse of the damage Liverpool can go on to cause following a mixed start to the campaign.
