Philippe Coutinho has expressed his delight at his return from injury. The Liverpool playmaker has missed the last few weeks with a hamstring strain obtained in Liverpool’s 4-1 win at Manchester City last month. Now the Brazilian is fit and available again and he could not be happier.
Coutinho told Liverpool.com, “I’m feeling much better. I’m training and I’m available for selection. It’s the best thing, because to be out injured is very difficult – it’s awful. Of course, we love playing football and when we’re available for selection, it’s the best thing. I’m feeling good and I hope I can help the team out in the best possible way.”
Coutinho watched on from the sidelines as Liverpool battled back to a draw with West Brom at Anfield on Sunday and paid tribute to his team’s never say die spirit, “We didn’t give up at any time,” he said.
“It was a very difficult game against a team that sat back and the atmosphere inside the ground was amazing, the supporters were urging us on, so the goal was very important and we were satisfied given the way things were going.
“The fans are there supporting us and that’s really important, as I’ve said before. We hope it’ll be like it was in the last game until the end of the season, everyone united, so we can achieve positive results in the league.”
