Sports Mole's countdown of the top 25 Liverpool players in Premier League history continues with number 18 - Philippe Coutinho.

A player who could still climb up this list in the years to come, Philippe Coutinho is the only member of the current squad to make the countdown.

The 25-year-old joined the Reds from Inter Milan for just £8.5m in 2013 and has since established himself as one of the best playmakers in the Premier League, with an improving eye for goal too.

The 2016-17 campaign saw him net a career-best 13 league goals, and at the time of writing the Brazil international has found the back of the net 34 times in 138 Premier League games for Liverpool.

Those include a number of memorable strikes which have often saved Liverpool in times of need, leading to him scooping the club's Players' Player of the Year and Fans' Player of the Year awards in both 2014-15 and 2015-16.

Silverware has so far eluded Coutinho at Anfield, but having recently committed his long-term future to the club he will be hopeful of ending that drought soon.
