Philippe Coutinho hasn’t had the best of times since leaving Liverpool in 2018, while his inflated transfer fee means the Red Devils could sign Alisson Becker and Virgil van Dijk, and win get many victories.
The Aston Villa team he joined was also very different to what it is today, with Unai Emery (and big spending) turning the Midlands side into a European chaser.
In fact, he will participate in the UEFA Conference League this season and hopes to compete with West Ham United by winning the competition. She certainly has the ideal manager to succeed in Europe.
But before that, there’s a trip to Anfield to get through. Liverpool will aim to continue their strong start to the Premier League campaign but face a tough test here, especially in the absence of Virgil van Dijk (suspended) and Ibrahima Konaté (injured). .
Here’s a look at Aston Villa’s availability for the match with four players set to sit out and unable to be selected by Emery.
Emi Buendia and Tyrone Mings
Aston Villa did not have much luck with injuries earlier this season. Emi Buendía and Tyrone Mings are both out for a long time due to knee injuries.
Both are expected to be out for a long time, Emery said last week. Both have had surgery and will face many shortcomings during this time. Obviously neither will play against Liverpool at Anfield.
Jacob Ramsay
Jacob Ramsay is a real talent (Steven Gerrard was a huge fan during his time at Villa Park) and is another major omission. In last season’s match against Liverpool at Anfield, this attacking midfielder was on the scorers list.
Currently, he is having an ankle problem and could be out for a few more weeks. He won’t be involved here but will be a big boost for Emery when he returns.

Former Liverpool attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho is expected to be absent for some time but may no longer even be an Aston Villa player by kick-off thanks to transfer interest from various quarters . Fabrizio Romano reports (on Twitter/X) that Beşiktaş and Real Betis are both options for the Brazilian, with Emery set to lose the player brought in by Gerrard from Barcelona.
Coutinho is currently sidelined with a hamstring problem, but that won’t keep him out of action for long. Although he has shown flashes of form in the Midlands, he no longer looks the same as the player he was before his dream move to Camp Nou.
