Ha, Falcao would struggle to get into Tranmere's starting XI based on his contribution this season at Man U - he's like an expensive upgrade on Arouna.

Coutinho nominated for POTY. Naismith must be gutted to have missed out.

The horror Walsh in The Echo is kissing his arse....

There have been fewer players so enjoyable to watch as Coutinho in recent months. His touch is supreme, caressing the ball at his feet before venturing forward with a real intent. His feet dance and his shoulders drop as his brain assesses the options ahead. He usually picks the right one.
Coutinho offers everything that is good about the game. He is a delight to watch and will often provide a moment of genius, one which belies a career still in its formative years.
There should be respect – and, indeed, love – for crunching tackles and endless running, but Coutinho’s laser-like through balls, dribbling skills and dipping, swerving shots are what gets fans off their seat. In the past few months, he’s belonged on his own pitch – and often played like that too, as if the ball were attached to his shoelace.
His tricks are flicks are not just for show. Coutinho is still just 22, but he has scored four league goals and created 42 chances,
four leading to a goal. To the rest of the country, he’s simply exploded on to the scene. The small kid with the curly hair who always looked a little lightweight and wasteful in front of goal has now become a man, twisting and turning his way onto highlight reels weekly. Just five minutes and a cursory glance at any game Liverpool now plays will reveal Coutinho’s brilliance.

Theres more gushing Third Form drivel throughout it...but I cant be arsed with it.

This time next year he'll just copy that and replace 'Coutinho' with 'Ibe'.

Seriously though, that piece would be overselling 1986 Maradona.

For all the kind words, Naismith has had a significantly better season than him this season. The stats don't lie. Not that the cult will understand all that.
 
The Echo nonsense about Coutinho is homoerotic drivel. There is seriously something wrong with that lot. It's truly psychotic. That lot WILL commit a stomach-churning atrocity in the not-too-distant future. Of that there can be no doubt. Someone WILL be murdered. A death treat WILL be carried out.

No wonder journalists are terrified.
