There is no doubt about Coutinho's class... the management should be looking at renewing his contract and putting a release clause in there to safeguard its asset

how is putting a release clause be safeguarding us?

Peter Beardsley claims Liverpool midfielder Coutinho has already surpassed him and tips the Brazilian to become an Anfield great
Former Reds forward believes the 21-year-old could be the next Kenny Dalglish and labels him a 'special player'

Peter Beardsley has backed current Liverpool youngster Philippe Coutinho to develop into an Anfield legend and has tipped him to follow in the footsteps of Kop legend Kenny Dalglish.

The Brazilian attacking midfielder has had a good start to life on Merseyside since his January move, after Liverpool paid Inter Milan £8.5m for his signature. The 21-year-old earned his place in manager Brendan Rodgers side, and Beardsley, who played for the Reds for four years between 1987 and 1991, has claimed that Coutinho has already surpassed him on the pitch.

“I love Coutinho,” Beardsley admitted when speaking to the Liverpool Echo. “He is outstanding and has unbelievable ability.

“He’s better than I ever was and I really mean that. He’s miles better than me.

“If he stays here for a long time he’s got a chance of being as big as Kenny – that kind of stature.

“I look at his ability and I think he could be the new Kenny Dalglish. He is a very special player.”

Beardsley is currently football development manager at Newcastle, and he watched Coutinho’s talent during last season’s 6-0 thrashing of the Magpies at St James’ Park, in which the Brazilian flourished in the heart of the Reds’ midfield.

“I watched him closely that day and he ran the game against us,' said Beardsley.

“It was a smart signing by Brendan (Rodgers). I don’t think anyone saw it coming and he was a real bargain.”

PC is incredible. Still don't know why it didn't work out at Inter. Possibly £1 for £1 the best player we have signed for many a year. Interesting that his skill came as a shock to Beardsley who is very knowledgeable about the game.....

Peter Beardsley was my hero during his time here. Barnes and him were great dribblers of the ball but I preferred Beardsley over Barnes because Beardo was more consistent. Barnes could be a world class player in one game but almost a spectator in the next but never with Beardo.

Beardo was being humble, no way is Cou. better than him esp. during the 87/88 season when Liverpool played better than Brazil. Maybe Cou. today is better than the 21 year old Beardo. But it is very possible that Cou. can be as good or even surpass Beardo in 4 years time and hopefully he won't be doing a Suarez on us.

He's a f'ucking thug. It's against kunts like him where for a long long time now we've desperately missed a "Graham Souness" to sort those kind of  b'stards out.

i was the way he fell that hurt him, he seemed to be holding his arm/shoulder.   still, Williams needs a fuking boot down the Achilles for that

[woof woof !]

Honestly don't know how Williams was allowed to stay on after his deliberate attempted boot to Coutinho's nuts 

[Benny The Noon]

It's a foul that ended up with a nasty fall and a yellow card. It's not a red card challenge

[red till i die!!]

i really hope in anfield someone clatter's that williams kunt after we put 5 past them. unleash the beast sakho on him
