Arsenal Invincible hails 'amazing' Liverpool star
Philippe Coutinho has been in outstanding form under Jurgen Klopp
ARSENAL legend Gilberto Silva has lavished praise on Philippe Coutinho, describing his compatriot as "amazing".
 
Coutinho made a slow start to the season under Brendan Rodgers, scoring just once in ten games.
But since the arrival of Jurgen Klopp the 23-year-old has been instrumental in Liverpool's upturn in form, scoring four goals, playing a pivotal role in wins over Chelsea and Manchester City.
 
Coutinho is a slight doubt for tonight's Capital One Cup clash with Southampton but Silva, who won the Premier League and FA Cup twice at Arsenal, is a huge fan of the player.
He told the Guardian: "He is amazing. 
 
"I have seen him play a few times for Liverpool and it’s nice to see he is delivering in English football. 
"He cannot physically compete but he has a very quick mind. He gets the ball and passes and moves and they cannot catch him. 
"In Brazil we have this kind of thing inside of us to take responsibility and he is doing that."
