Liverpool manager Jurgen Klop, who is extremely active in the transfer market this summer, said he did not have to attract a player to be identified as a direct substitute for Philippe Coettinho. The Brazilian was sold to Barcelona in January, and Merseyside were reinforced by two new midfielders in the face of Nabi Keita and Fabigno. But both are not as creative as Kouttinho. However, Claude insists that his team does not necessarily need such a type of footballer. You can not replace Phil Kouttinho with the exact same type of player, he is Cootinho, having a specific style of play, tactfully exceptional, he can play as a wing like 10 like 8 . . . It`s awesome. I do not want to put any of my players in such a position that people repeatedly repeat that he is Phil`s deputy. I think one of our great achievements in the second half of last season was that we did nothe talked a lot about Phil, and it did not look very safe in January.

If we had it, he couldbut Salah was injured but Phil could play to the left, Sadio to the right, and to include another midfielder, he would be very good, but he was no longer with us, we want him all the best. There is no need to replace Phil, we need to build a team for next year, and there is no player like Coutinho, there are many other good players, and we`ve got some of them, `said Clap.
