REVEALED: Coutinho's Liverpool stats still better than Pogba at Man Utd

Barcelona ace Philippe Coutinho's stats with Liverpool this season are still outperforming those of Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Pogba has only scored five goals — two of those came against Manchester City — all season in the Premier League. The France international has also only provided 25 key passes all campaign for his team-mates, with a total of 34 chances created.

That has all come over the course of 22 appearances, reports the Daily Mail.

In contrast, Coutinho only made a grand total of 14 appearances before leaving the Reds for the Nou Camp.

But while he was still at Anfield, Coutinho scored seven goals in the league — two more than Pogba has managed.

He also played 34 key passes — compared to Pogba's 25 — and provided six assists, which is a total of 40 chances created, still six more than the United man's record.
