7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

[BarcaJack]

If we have Coutinho we should play Coutinho-Messi-Dembele afront. Other options include Coutinho-Suarez-Messi (if Dembele is not ready for Barca football) and Coutinho playing in Iniesta's position (against weak teams).

That is one of the things Coutinho brings that versatility.

Also if Messi got injured or want to rest him he is probably the best 'No.10' in the world to cover for Messi in way team currently plays. At moment have no one that could really do that.

Liverpools Salla is nicknamed the Egyptian Messi with good reason

Those Messi nicknames are preposterous.

I do love Coutinho. He gives us versatility in 2 positions. Since he cant play in CL i would try the cheapest time to buy him. Its not easy. If he goes to the WC before joining barça his price is gonna rise. lol.

To an extent that is true but also it worked because Rakitic was not good enough techincally as a Barca mid and Lucho found a way to mask this with Alves and Messi with Rakitic picking up more of the defensive positioning to cover them.

Raki did a good job but nothing that lots of other players couldnt have.

I would say the best Raki has ever been for Barca is the past 4/6 weeks or so. Say that as huge critic of his but fairs fair he has been very good lately.

That doesn't mean he's anywhere good enough to be starting for Barca

I take it that you haven't seen Salla play much this season ??

I see if we got Coutinho to switch to 4-2-3-1
With Coutinho-Messi-Dembele behind Suarez and 2 midfielders from Busi Raki Paulinho (assuming Roberto is RB). And Iniesta to rotate with Coutinho (rested in Liga a little to be fresh for CL)

Of course i´ve seen Salah. So what? No one deserves the nickname "XYZ country Messi".

I was skeptical about the price, still am to a certain extent. But you know what, let's do this. We need a countinho quality player.

Heck it, bring Greizman as well.I'm moving to Barcelona next season; want to see us rip teams apart

Look at the price of Dembele... why would a club ask for any less?

If by Mina you mean pique that doesn't look bad on paper

 

[jamrock]

We need him more than Greizman, suarez can work for 1 more season after this, so let's get it done, break the bank, they have put on in a horrible situation with there transfers so we have to pay the price now. So let's do it

Give Messi a great ending to his career

Says we decided to go after Coutinho in January, and if Coutinho expresses his wish to come the move could be accelerated.

Can't even trust RAC1 anymore after the summer they've had.

That fat midget Romero provided enough OJOs in the summer to last a life time.
