1. Philippe Coutinho
Liverpool’s player of the season, Philippe Coutinho. It’s so scary that he’s only 23 years old, man, it really is. It feels like he’s been around forever, since he moved to Inter Milan when he was only 18 and he’s grown so much since then.
Coutinho scored 12 goals and had 7 assists coming from a wide position when he could be finding the ball much more often in the center. When Coutinho picks up the ball in space, he’s must watch television. He’s a Vine waiting to happen. Just ask Hector Bellerin and the entire United defense.
This is the player that Liverpool need to ensure is at the club through his prime, it’ll signal intent that Liverpool are back and are not a selling club, despite losing Xabi Alonso, Javier Mascherano, Fernando Torres, Luis Suarez and Raheem Sterling in recent years.
