Liverpool playmaker Philippe Coutinho describes himself as a "football fanatic" and admits that he finds it hard to switch off away from the pitch.

Liverpool playmaker Philippe Coutinho has admitted that he finds it hard to switch off from football during his spare time, describing himself as a "football fanatic".

The Brazil international revealed that he is constantly watching the game in an attempt to improve and said that he often watches videos of the likes of Ronaldinho and Kaka, who he regards as his "heroes".

Coutinho told Liverpool's official website: "I am a football fanatic. I love everything about it, both playing and watching. During my spare time I try to watch as many games as possible.

"Or if I'm on the internet I'll be looking at videos of players such as Ronaldinho and studying the way he played. He is one of my heroes; Kaka too. I try to do all I can on the training pitch to get better every day. I'll watch DVDs of games and try to see where I did something wrong or could have made a better choice.

"I speak to the coaching staff and the manager too. Or I'll chat to my father or my wife about my game because advice from everyone can help."

Coutinho signed from Inter Milan in January 2013 for around £8m.
