Coutinho happy to discuss new Liverpool deal

Philippe Coutinho says he'd be happy to pen new terms with Liverpool.

The midfielder insists he's not obsessing over a new deal.

"The start to the season was slow but we are improving and results have been much better over the last few weeks," he said. "If we could win a trophy that would be very important for the team and the club.

"The major difference is the (3-4-3) system we are now playing. We have more options in each position. We press high, we are creating more opportunities and we have intensity again. We have our confidence back.

"It is not a hot topic for me about signing a new contract. But I would be very happy to stay here for a long time and, maybe, I could become like one of the great players who have been here. I want to win trophies here of my own."
