7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

[Aryagorn]

AnfieldEd gets his information directly from the guy who mows the lawn. Legit.

Why are you spending time in online forums of different teams when youre homeboys with Klopp

[MENTION=928]AnfieldEd[/MENTION] has been here for quite a while, take it easy on his news man. If you believe it, acknowledge it otherwise take it with a pinch of salt! Why judge him and shit like that!?

 

[BarcaMessi]

We have the money. The question is whether we should spend it in one window. We were already considering Coutinho / Paulinho before Neymar jumped ship.

Please no paulinho. How can Messi allow it happen?

 

[MessiTHEgoat]

All 3 of them would cost 300M+. Don't think Barca has that much money.

if what AnfieldEd said was true, we'll actually wast only 60m for coutinho in this window. which is good.

we also had 26m, the loyal bonus which we didn't pay to the guy in your pic.

 

[jairzinho]

I think we should submit an improved offer for Coutinho. Even $110/$115m would be justifiable because we have the budget to do it. There really isn't much quality midfielders available in the market either.

 

[Zincubus]

Yes I've been told we rejected a 100m euro bid and Barca was going to increase that to 130m which we would have accepted. However he wasn't going before our 2 legged cl play off and now lallana is injured for 3 months we've vetoed the deal. Unless you increase it again I can't see it happening and if it does happen it will be after our 2 legged cl play off

So are we saying these figures are realistic ??

I'm happy to spend what it takes to get Coutinho , he's gonna be one of the midfield greats I believe .

Figures in the post above don't mention 60milion ???

Liverpool legend Ray Haughton said an hour ago that if the money's right Liverpool will sell Couthinho regardless of Lellana's injury concerns .... Ray knows his stuff !

We'll make the right bid

 

[dakt]

He does not fit at all. We lack a strategic/intelligent player who gives the team more structure in midfield in our squad besides Iniesta. Coutinho would make the team more disbalanced than it already is.
As for the LW position, we don't need another playmaker there, we need a fast goal-oriented winger who can make runs behind the defence. You cannot create chances if you only play with playmakers. Who are they going to pass the ball to? Our problem with Neymar was that he was trying to become a creator instead of playing like he did in the treble winning season, where he was more of a "runner-for-messi". Also, we would lose our strength at counter attacks.

I haven't follow Liverpool much, but from what I saw in yt highlights it seem that you might be right. We'll see.
I would be far more grateful for Xavi like player than this, but since the options are very limited...

Read it again.

Hi I'm on holiday and on my phone scrolling through this thread. You had coutinho up until this afternoon when Lallana was confirmed out for three months. Now coutinho is staying put and he's accepted that. Things can change but it will take a bid above 100m euros for us to accept. Deal was 120m euros in 3 instalments of 60 then 35 then 25 over 4 windows plus 20 in add ons.

Is he among the people who will decide whether they'll accept our offer? If not then it's just his personal opinion and doesn't really mean much. He could be right or wrong but I wouldn't get my hopes up based on his words.

- No Coutinho against Athletic in their final friendly of the summer, might be the only concrete sign for now.

- Press seems to split between "Dembele, Inigo and Coutinho almost on Camp Nou" to "Coutinho second priority after Dybala" or "Coutinho is not for sale".

- I think we should follow the press of the players team country,.

 

[BarcaMessi]

Even if Liverpool is willing to release Coutinho, he would likely have to play both of their CL qualifiers.

No.

 

[Paul]

No way that would happen... we wouldn't sign him for 100m+ only for La Liga.
CL qualifiers are in 10 days, I totally doubt we would get him after, it's in the next few days or not this year.
