Ex-Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho is now playing for Bayern Munich.

Liverpool fans have hit back at Philippe Coutinho’s comments to the Liverpool Echo, suggesting that Bayern Munich have a better atmosphere.

Coutinho claims that Bayern are a tighter knit club than Liverpool, and he is really enjoying his time in Germany.

He said: “Bayern are more of a family than my old clubs.

“I know there’s the atmosphere of Liverpool, but it’s even more of a family here.”

Coutinho was once such a popular player at Liverpool, but the way he went about his departure has seen him take on board great criticism.

The 27-year-old’s latest comments have not helped to have increased his popularity among Reds fans either.

Coutinho actually has a reputation to restore at Bayern, as his time at Barcelona did not go according to plan.

The playmaker struggled at the Nou Camp, and was ultimately deemed surplus to requirements.

Since the former Liverpool man moved to Bayern he has made three appearances for them so far, but he is yet to contribute with a goal or an assist.
