Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers backs Philippe Coutinho to improve his goal tally.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers talked up the talent of Philippe Coutinho and believes that the 21-year-old can score more goals.

The Brazilian playmaker recently revealed that he wanted to improve his goal return, and the Reds boss insists that the 21-year-old has the ability to up his tally.

Rodgers told the club's official website: "I think he's got himself into some great positions - but I spoke to him and said that maybe sometimes he tries to be too accurate. What's important is you hit the target.

"He's a wonderful player. He opens the game up for us at times, he's a player that loves to have the ball and allows you to continue with your game, and he puts defenders on the back foot.

"He's a kid that works very, very hard at his game. I'm sure once one goes in, he can go on a little run of goals."

The Reds host Aston Villa this evening.
