Liverpool player Philippe Coutinho has reportedly claimed that he has never heard of new Manchester United boss David Moyes.
According to Metro.co.uk, the 21-year-old Brazilian player had admitted that he has no idea of who Moyes is in an interview by a reputed British newspaper.
The report however, suggested that Coutinho might have been 'living in a cave' as even if he ignores the fact that the coming of Moyes as the iconic Sir Alex Ferguson's successor has been one of the biggest stories of the season, he would have faced Moyes when he was still the manager of Everton.
However, the report admitted that Countinho's statement might be a deliberate attempt at mind games before the clash between the two sides.
