Popular Post Delphinho123 Posted November 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2022 I wouldn’t be writing off our most talented footballer if I were you. Everybody gets a clean slate under Emery. If his form doesn’t pick up, then so be it, we’ll probably be stuck with a dud for the next few years but I think he might surprise a few after the WC. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the new manager will help him play a key role for us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If as we saw today the team get their shit together this may allow Coutinho the luxury to do his thing. It's a very fine line though and will be interesting to see how he reacts to Unai's input. Coutinho isn't just gonna be a washout overnight we've seen early on in the season what he can do. He's low on confidence, probably unhappy and likely not entirely fit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a different type of player to Ozil though, Ozil was at his best when everything went through him. Coutinho was always more a player who provided moments of magic in games. Maybe still too much of a luxury player for what we want but the challenge for Emery is to create a setup that allows Coutinho the opportunities to provide those moments of quality. We can only wait and see what happens I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't looked right for ages so I wonder if he's been carrying this injury for a while? Hopefully comes back better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PussEKatt Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Im sure he will improve under Emri,just as the other players have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) He came here as a bit of a warm-up for the world cup. Unfortunately he had a naff manager and stunk it out for the last six months. I think work is underway on a move away. I think he found out he wasn't in the squad and threw a wobbler.

Will he surprise you as much as Bentancur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 So he was injured… and that’s why he wasn’t in the squad yesterday, this makes sense. Looking forward to seeing what magic Phil can do in a Unai Villa team when he returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Not in the Brazil squad for the WC. He had no shot before he joined us so nothing really lost there, but I wonder if he resents Gerrard for this. Completely tanked his form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
