One of the main points of contention amongst the supporters is that the decision to allow Coutinho to leave during the mid-season window could negatively impact their mission to achieve a top-four finish, especially if they are unable to sign a replacement this month.

In a bid to boost the spirits of the Liverpool supporters, the club posted a tweet yesterday to confirm that Mo Salah and Daniel Sturridge had returned to training.

The Liverpool fans responded to the post with plenty of admiration for their electric Egyptian, whilst a handful of The Reds appear to have forgotten that Sturridge was still a part of the club.
