It’s New Year’s Day and you know what that means Liverpool fans! That’s right, a month filled with rumours of Philippe Coutinho’s seemingly inevitable transfer to Barcelona.
With the transfer window now firmly opened and Sky Sports News already losing their minds, the wild speculation probably unavoidable.
However, Jurgen Klopp hasn’t helped matters by leaving the talented Brazilian completely out of his much-changed squad to face Burnley at Turf Moor this afternoon.

The Reds boss explained that the decision was taken because Coutinho has picked up an injury, however that hasn’t stopped Liverpool fans flooding social media suggest the attacking midfielder is off to sunnier shores.
Here’s a few beauties for you:
