Carragher gives damning verdict on former Liverpool team-mate Coutinho after below-par display

Daily Mail  

Carragher labelled Coutinho as 'A shadow of a player we know' after poor form Former team-mate Jamie Carragher didn't hold back in his opinion of Coutinho The forward has not registered a goal or assist in any of Villa's games this season Jamie Carragher made a brutal admission about former team-mate Philippe Coutinho after he was hauled off in Aston Villa's 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest on Monday. The former Barcelona forward was substituted by Steven Gerrard shortly after the hour-mark at the City Ground, with the Villa boss opting instead for Danny Ings in search of a winning goal. Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard replaced Philippe Coutinho with thirty minutes left to play Jamie Carragher was damning in his post-match assessment of Coutinho's recent form for Villa After the game, Carragher also weighed in on the Brazilian's form and despite once sharing an Anfield changing room, the defender-turned pundit didn't hold back on his assessment of Coutinho's current fortunes. The Brazilian forward's ill-fated spell at Barcelona was the catalyst for a sudden loss in form After a solid start to life at Villa Coutinho appears to have lost his spark in recent months Villa occupy 16th position in the table - three points off the bottom three - with just two wins all season.
