Queens Park Rangers goalkeeper Julio Cesar witnessed the talent Liverpool's new Brazilian signing possesses on a daily basis while the pair were together at Inter Milan - and he's in no doubt the 20-year-old has what it takes to be a success at Anfield.

"I hope he can do well in a Liverpool shirt," said Cesar. "I send him my best wishes for his new adventure at Liverpool.

"I am convinced that he will prove his quality because off the pitch he really is a golden boy and he'll be able to assert himself."

Coutinho has made two appearances for Liverpool so far, scoring on his full debut against Swansea City.

He's likely to come up against his compatriot Cesar when QPR travel to Anfield in the Barclays Premier League on the final day of the 2012-13 season.

He is a key player, a match winner no matter what others say. What a fantastic January window we had! A solid CB needed for the summer and I hope BR is keeping an eye on Ince who will become a free agent over the summer. Scott Sinclair would also be a fantastic signing!
