Coutinho is easily one of the best players in the country right now.
The Brazilian scores goals, creates chances and does everything you’d expect of a playmaker.
Now THAT is special!
You don't need to ask Philippe Coutinho twice for him to produce something like this… what a goal and Liverpool lead 1-0 already 💥

He’s a genius. But his iconic skill is his curling right-foot shot from range and against Swansea in the Premier League today, he notched an absolute cracker.
You can watch it, courtesy of NBC, here.
Coutinho now has 12 for the season, meaning he’s on target for a 20-goal campaign.
Considering his position and his overall contribution to games, that’s world-class.
And remember… He used to have a horrible shot!
Can honestly remember a time when Coutinho's shooting technique looked unnatural. He used to drag it with his instep. Now, he hits a cleaner ball from distance than anybody in the country and scores more goals from range than any player in the world. Incredible.
