Manchester United fans furious that Philippe Coutinho Liverpool FC warning was ignored

Manchester United supporters are furious by the amount of space Philippe Coutinho was allowed when scoring for Barcelona on Tuesday night.

The former Liverpool midfielder netted a sensational goal to give Barcelona a three goal lead at the Nou Camp in the Champions League quarter-final, but supporters think it was unacceptable to concede.

Although the Brazil international did superbly well to find the back of the net from distance, many fans feels that United should have done their homework on Coutinho to prevent him scoring such a trademark goal.

The 26-year-old scored countless times for Liverpool by cutting onto his stronger foot from distance before smashing the ball into the far corner of the net.

Coutinho's goal marked the end of a torrid night for United fans, and after the game they hammered their defence for conceding such an inevitable effort.

Manchester United need to respond like Sir Alex Ferguson did vs FC Barcelona  

Seen it before

Coutinho doing what he did at Liverpool from that area. No pressure at all. Unstoppable to be fair. #mufc

Baffling

Smalling has played against Coutinho for years in the Prem knows he wants to come inside on his right foot so why let him do it? #MUFC

Same old

I guess our defence and midfielder have never ever seen Coutinho play before.      #mufc #ucl #barmun

Inevitable

Messi cutting in from the right. Coutinho cutting in from the left. Shock.
Gulf in class far too wide. Massive clear out needed and a coherent transfer strategy put in place. #BARMUN #MUFC #ManUtd

Amateur

Defending has been absolutely amateurish this evening! Smalling should know that Coutinho always favours his right foot to curl it in from that distance! #bbcfootball #MUFC #UCL

Trademark Coutinho goal
Trademark Messi goal
Trademark Ashely young #MUFC #BARCA

Let down

A Coutinho special. Great strike, we have been so so bad, the players have really let the supporters down tonight. #mufc

Boring

You'd think Coutinho would get bored of scoring the same goal...every time...all his career. It is a nice one though. #UCL #Barca #MUFC
