7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

I can already see us getting Coutinho and Lemar :bartomeu: Liverpool fans would hate us so much :lol:

(I understand there's no chance of this happening)

Get Lemar now, buy Coutinho next summer, then next season we'd have Lemar, Coutinho and Alena in midfield, not too bad.

Wonder what happend between liverpool and lemar. Did monaco want to much for him ? or are we the reason this didnt work out? Monaco lost almost every player cant think they would want to loose lemar too unless someone is paying the right price...

Oxelaide-Chamberlin was apparently Chelsea bound until yesterday when it was reported the deal fell through and he was now negotiating with Liverpool. Liverpool will sign Ox and discarded Lemar apparently. And Monaco signed Keita Balde a few days ago, the apparent Lemar replacement so I think they are open to letting him go.

Have you watched Lemar?

If we cannot get Coutinho then who do you want us to sign?

Yes I have and I like the kid. I would be delightet to have him here I am just saying that he can't be a Coutinho replacement because:

1. I see him more as a winger while Coutinho can play as winger and as AM
2. Lemar is more about the speed and crossing while Coutinho is more about the ball control and vision
3. Coutinho would improve our squad immediately, he for sure would give immediate boost to the team while Lemar still has a lot to learn and he needs more time to progress to become a world class.

As I said I would be tremendously happy to have them both but IMHO Coutinho is what we need right now.

In all honesty though isn't Lemar a winger? Maybe Valverde wants to play 4-2-3-1 so he would be an option to play the left wing while Dembouz plays right....

Well the only source reporting LFC gave up on Lemar is the Mirror, and according to Liverpool fans that guy and the paper are rubbish.

No he is not a winger. He can play on the left, but he's not a winger. Here are some articles about him:
