Is he showing his passion for France when he throws his toys out the pram and refuses to be on the reserve list? He’s a nothing player. He isn’t creative. He isn’t particularly good defensively and he’s also sloppy in possession. But because he’s tall and makes the odd tackle you want him...

I’ve said this repeatedly, we will not see the best of Coutinho until he plays regularly as an AM. Playing him on the LW does not allow him to play to all his strengths and limits his game. Unfortunately Valverde’s cowardice won’t allow that to happen, as he’d rather make the midfield as...

He’s not good enough. For depth yes, but he’ll expect to be a starter and throw his toys out the pram when it becomes painfully obvious that he isn’t, like he has done for France and now PSG. De Jong please.

I know it didn’t end well for him at Monaco, but I think I Jardim would do well here. Unfortunately, most of the better/proven managers are in fat contracts at other clubs.

What I’d like to see: ———————Ter Stegen Semedo——-Pique——Umtiti——-Alba —————Vidal———Arthur ———————--Alena Malcom———-Messi———-Dembele What I expect to see; ————————Ter Stegen Semedo———Pique——Umtiti——-Alba ———————-Busquets ——————Vidal——-Arthur Messi————-Suarez———Dembele

He’s absolutely infuriating. Overly cautious and shows no sense of wanting to actually coach or develop players. Alena, Dembele, Malcom, Vidal, Semedo have all been horribly mismanaged. Lenglet would’ve been in that list too, if not for the injury to Umtiti. All of the above spend extended...

This is the epitome of knee-jerk. What a moronic post.

It’ll be nice to see Malcom, but I imagine it’ll be in the left which is a shame.

Hopefully he does well enough to generate interest amongst other EPL clubs too, and ignores some sort of bidding war.

He played ok. He lost the ball a few times but that’s what happens to most wingers not named Messi - they lose the ball. He’s 21, and probably playing in setup that doesn’t suit him fully, but he is still making things happen, and importantly, defenders fear him. His ability, however, is clear...

Why do Saurez and Rakitic have to play every minute of every single game regardless of form? The problem with EV is that his subs always seem to be pre-planned. Never mind the circumstances, Arthur has to come off around minute 70/80 invariably for Vidal. Dembele the same. Semedo plays well for...

What’s so “lmaooooo” about suggesting Coutinho should play in MF? Playing him alongside a DM and a CM needn’t be reckless. He covered more ground in the World Cup than any other midfielder prior to Brazil’s exit to Belgium (when they happened to be missing Casemiro).

We will not see the best of Coutinho until he plays in the midfield three. That’s where Brazil have now realised he is best utilised. That’s where Liverpool we’re increasingly starting to use him (and it’s why they were so hot on someone like Fekir to replace him). He can build play from deep...

Don’t really understand why people think Coutinho is “too attacking” when you have sides like City who play with a midfield three of Fernandinho, David Silva and Bernardo Silva - one DM and two AM’s, yet we can’t play with a DM, CM (Arthur/Rakitic/Vidal) & an AM? Most top sides have at least...

Hazard is a different animal under Sarri than he was under Conte. Or remember that last season under Mourinho where he scored I think one goal all season? Rather than talk about players who aren’t here, maybe a little more focus on getting more out the the players who are here? Players who were...

I don’t think he’s Messi. As I said above, I believe he needs to be braver on occasion, let loose and try to make something happen, because I believe he has that in his locker. I thought he had a good game, and I also think he’s a good player, who has been hard done by, by Valverde.

He’s capable of running at players. He has that ability. I’m not criticising him, I’m just saying he has it in his locker, to take a chance and go at a couple of players here and there.

Does he have to play every minute of every game?

He isn’t a wide forward. Half the board seem to think he’s a forward, the other half (inc. me) thunk he’s a midfielder. You lose a significant part of his game playing him outwide. He’s not a dud there, but his natural game lends itself far better to playing centrally, where he can break between...

Needs to be braver going forward, but I think that will come with more confidence and continuity. Solid game overall though.
