Pretty sure if Coutinho was playing for Liverpool yesterday he would have played very well. He does not fit in this Barca system.

We should get rid of Valverde and not Coutinho FFS! Under different manager he could regain his world class form like he did under Klop. Especially if that manager changes his playing position. Selling him after one bad season would be stupid as it gets. Than we are indeed FC Circus with clown management. Can't believe some people here still don't realize where the true problem lies.

According to a insider close to the board, the club decided that he will be sold today.

Maybe but witch position? His workrate for a midfielder is disastrous.. I have big question marks for our physical coaches.. I almost have the feeling the only thing we do in training is playing rondo's. Our players are so weak compared with other big teams.

Whether he stays or goes is relatively insignificant if the manager and staff stay in place. They don't know how to motivate and prepare for a big match. One time benifet of the doubt/learning opp, shame me twice--it is on me.

He worked perfectly under Klop didn't he? His work rate was MUCH better! So now after ONE year he forgot how to play and run?

This is either fake news or we are truly disgusting club right now. So Coutinho is now the ONLY person responsible for that disaster yesterday? And what about Valverde? I suppose he should get another chance with Di Maria and Willian?! :lol:

Don't know, I don't watch bpl only Barça and I judge him based on his performance here.

So witch position? Don't see it, not in ev's team and not in a 433 when I see him running on the pitch.

Keeping cou is a gamble and we gambled enough the past years.

FFS of course not in EV team. If EV stays than no one can help us, this club will be destroyed. Roberto Fernandez clearly said that he was bought to play in the midfield and not on the wing and I couldn't agree more but under one condition. For him to be able to play there we must have control like we had before. That's something we never had under Retardo. Do you think Iniesta wouldn't struggle under this idiot during this season? Oh yes he would for sure!

Can you imagine Xavi-Iniesta-Busi midfield even in their prime playing the way Retardo played yesterday with his mind only on defending and without any plan how to attack? Even they would struggle under him and that's a fact.

We can buy De Jong, De Ligt or Mbappe but nothing would change while this idiot is still here!

Good point, maybe that can work in the condition you mentioned but I can remember Klopp disagree with the idea of him playing in midfield for us.

EV is the first men that needs to go, you don't need to tell me that. I can't remember the last match that I missed so I know how we play under him and under other coaches.

Good you mention Roberto Fernandez's words. True and clearly shows the mess.

Otherwise, imagine, just imagine that Messi scored his great chance in the 16th minute or Allison wouldn't save Messi's big shot close to the right post.
Barca would have advanced to the final... Maybe it would even be easier to won the final.
Valverde would have become a hero, everyone would be happy, glad and satisfied.

But look at the actual game-play.
Everyone would have neglected how badly the team played the first leg, the second leg, and generally how the Barca game declined the last two years (apart from Messi).

That's why you are damn right saying that nothing will change while EV is the manager...
