Coutinho Admits He Misses the Premier League

DBasia.news – Philippe Coutinho marked his debut with Aston Villa brilliantly. The Brazilian star admitted that he really missed the Premier League.

The match against Manchester United in the 2021-2022 Premier League continued at Villa Park, Sunday (16/1), became Coutinho’s comeback moment to the Premier League. A week ago, he had just borrowed The Villans from Barcelona.

Coutinho made his debut as a substitute. He came on in the 68th minute after Villa trailed 0-2.

It didn’t take long for Coutinho to show his quality. He played an important role in Villa’s reply scored by Jacob Ramsey in the 77th minute.

Coutinho’s debut was perfect after scoring the equalizer in the 91st minute. This time it was Ramsey’s turn to give him a mature pass.

This is certainly a good start for Coutinho’s journey at Aston Villa. His quality is starting to be doubted along with his failure with Barcelona.

Coutinho’s slick performance also seems to be proof that the 29-year-old player fits into the Premier League and English football style. This was not denied by the player.

“I miss games like this and the Premier League. niu is a good start and we kept believing until the end,” Coutinho told Sky Sports.

Coutinho immediately set a high target with Villa. He also seems to want to forget his difficult times at Barcelona.

“I’m here and focused on the goals of the club and the manager. I want to do a good job of helping my team-mates and the club,” he added.

Performing well with Villa is indeed the best way for Coutinho to revive his career again. He will surely attract the interest of big clubs again if he is able to bring Steven Gerrard’s team to the top.
