Liverpool attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho has been named the PFA Fans' Player of the month for February.

The 22-year-old Brazilian scored two goals, including an absolutely stunning strike at Southampton, as Brendan Rodgers' Reds went undefeated in six games to fire themselves back into contention for the Champions League.

As well as that goal at St Mary's, Coutinho scored in the FA Cup victory at Bolton, to help Liverpool progress to the quarter-finals. Liverpool won five of their six games in February, including an impressive win over Tottenham.

Coutinho continued his fine form into March, scoring another stunning goal in an impressive win against Manchester City on Sunday.

Liverpool are now fifth in the Premier League table, just two points off of Manchester United.
