Brendan Rodgers calls for Philippe Coutinho to score more

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers wants to see Philippe Coutinho score more goals.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has called on Philippe Coutinho to add more goals to his game.

The Brazilian playmaker was a constant menace to Hull City as the Reds beat the Tigers 2-0 on New Year's Day, but was unable to get on the scoresheet.

Rodgers told the club's official website: "He's shooting, he's really positive, he's aggressive and it was a wonderful bit of skill there at the end that could have been capped off with a goal.

"He just needs to learn how to put the ball in the net. He's played in all of the games and for a little guy, his strength has been incredible, I think everyone wished that [chance] at the end had gone in."

The victory takes the Reds back inside the top four in the Premier League.
