#5 Coutinho's time at Barcelona may not be finished after all
Barcelona's €120 million signing Philippe Coutinho had been struggling of late. Not only was he used sparingly by Valverde - he has started only 12 league games out of 24 this season - but had also looked out of sorts in most of his appearances.

In the recent days, reports of his struggles and another possible miscalculated move by the Catalans, had been doing the rounds. But with a brace on the night, Coutinho showed all's not over yet. He nicely placed the penalty into the bottom corner that Messi allowed him to have a go at. But his second goal was down to his pure predatory instincts.
The former Liverpool star sneakily got in between Sevilla's lines and connected well to Suarez's cross to head home a fine goal.
For all the talks of struggles and his unconvincing spell, Coutinho is now at eight goals and five assists for the season. He looked sharp on the night and would certainly add plenty more between now and May.
