Jose Enrique says Liverpool are still making progress despite no trophies

Liverpool defender Jose Enrique believes a lack silverware this season does not mean progress is not being made.

Meanwhile, Enrique has tipped team-mate Philippe Coutinho to have the same impact as Luis Suarez at Anfield. Coutinho has impressed at Liverpool since his arrival from Inter Milan in January and Enrique believes the Brazilian will be even better next season once he has settled into life in England like Suarez did after he joined the Reds halfway through the season in January 2011. The 27-year-old told the Liverpool Daily Post: "Luis had a really good year after just six months here before. Now you can see the real Luis, with how many goals he scores. "With Coutinho, it's going to happen the same I think. You can see how well he is doing but I think he's going to improve a lot more - if he improves after what he has been doing already he is going to be a top player for us. "He's a really calm player; he doesn't talk much but he's always joking. I really like him."
