7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

[khaled_a_d]

If we sign Bellerin or Nelson Sembedo I really doubt Roberto will keep playing RB. In that case he will return to midfield. Sergi played RB last season because we only had Vidal as RB.

He will get minutes their. he and Rafinha are the ultimate subs. Denis could join them.

 

[Nucky]

Rafinha will probably leave this summer.

I like Eriksen too, but I see Real Madrid with Isco who has an extra gear and the x-factor on him.

Eriksen might be more consistent right now, but I believe Coutinho has an extra gear and the x-factor to unleash in bigger games.

Sign him and Seri. Better to sign Coutinho now and play him as an attacking-midfielder in Iniesta's role. I love The Don, but I think it's time for him to play the role Xavi played for us in his last season.

I´m sorry but i doubt we will sign 2 midfielders.

You're probably right.

This board and management notoriously incompetent so why would they learn from their mistakes?

 

[gasgas]

This guy has nothing on Isco, who is not even a starter for real madrid. Why stoop so low? He could work as a bench player, if we had the midfield we were supposed to have as Barca. But since we have a bad midfield, this guy looks better than our midfielders, so i guess we should get him

Yes, let's sign players you've never watched except on highlights instead.

I think i have watched Verratti enough to know he can help us to a UCL title

This isn't FIFA. Barça won't sign Verratti because it would require PSG to agree to sell, which they will never do.

Hence our doom
Players we need we can't get them

We should have done our homework

See how Madrid have been signing one WC midfielder/potential each season while we...................

Is the trailing ellipses your new gimmick?

 

[Espacio]

We should buy him cause Iniesta is the main role to play good in our system and if iniesta is not on the field we can't have the ball in 3rd area
So we can think Inıesta is 33 years old and have some injury problem so he have to replace Coutinho istead of Iniesta

 

[serghei]

Sign Seri, Coutinho, and Semedo. 180m. Sell Arda, Rafinha, Denis, even Gomes if a good offer appears. We should be getting close to 100m. for these players. If not, no problem. Take in next summer's budget as well. I'd rather do all the transfers we need now and be more low key next summer.

Busquets, Seri, Coutinho, Roberto, Rakitic and Alena are already 6 players for 3 spots, or even 2 spots depending on the system.

Messi, Neymar, Suarez, Alcacer and Coutinho for the 3 spots up front as well. Coutinho can play AM and LW, so he does make sense as the best option for Iniesta's replacement.

Alba - Digne for LB, Umtiti - Mascherano for LCB, Marlon - Pique for RCB, Semedo - Vidal for RB.

 

[Jombi]

Coutinho is basically as unrealistic as Verratti IMO. I dont know how people can believe he is available to sign.

 

[Lelouch vi Britannia]

Liverpool aren't PSG. We got Suarez from them. You pay enough, you can get their player.

I'm afraid "enough" might be too much in this case though. Seeing people here throw around figures like 90m, no way is he worth that much. Even in this market.
