I am more and more afraid there is nothing going on. Maybe this all saga was just artificially created. If he is indeed injured and I hope he is not than this is all fake. At least there is a date when we'll know. If he plays for Lpool on 14th than he is not coming for sure. I would go so far to say that if he doesn't come before next weekend I don't think he will ever come since we will probably opt for Giezmann in summer as he will be a cheaper solution. :(

This is the same fucking story as it was in summer. In the end we will claim Lpool wanted 200 mil and they will claim he was never for sale. With Dembele it was clear he will come but with Coutinho chances are there is nothing going on at all.

On the other hand I really don't understand that NIKE mistake. There wasn't any statement from Nike or Barcelona and that's maybe a signal something is going on after all.

What money is this 100 pound with 150 million in add ons. Liverpool should rinse Barcelona for every penny they can get. They are a mega club so they can afford it. That's what everyone on this site are saying. We should ask for 175 million if Barca want him now and not a penny less. The club will go on with or without him. Meanwhile Barca follow Real Madrid into becoming a circus

Liverpool gave 85m for defender, club without PL trophy in 25? years, lets talk about circus

Liverpool can't let him go now. It would derail their season. No amount of money can compensate for that... They're in a battle, separated by only 8 points, for Champions League spots with United, Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal.

If there is a deal it will be for the summer.

We will know during next 7 days. I am sure they can secure CL without him and I am also sure they won't win anything with or without him.

If it happens in this window then Coutinho was given guarantees that a transfer would be facilitated for the right amount of money after the failed summer attempt.

That said, I still don't see it happening... If it were to happen it would have happened already if the above deal was agreed between Liverpool and Coutinho.

To be fair if this fails again there is also no guarantee it will happen in summer. Liverpool can play this game forever as long as Coutinho keeps playing. I am not a fan of Dembele's behavior this summer but to be honest if you don't have a release clause that's the only way if you want out otherwise you end up like Verratti.

Agreed, but I don't see Liverpool holding on to an unhappy player forever. It's just that a winter move makes no sense for Liverpool and they know Coutinho can't strike because it's a World Cup year.

But as you said, we shouldn't have to wait much longer.

I'm kinda confused as to what you are panicking about? It hasn't even been 5 days since the market opened, and every single tier 1 reliable Liverpool source is pretty much confirming that an offer is coming and Liverpool will sell for the right price.
 
Something smells fishy to me; the Catalan media have uncharacteristically kept their mouths shut over the past few days on Coutinho while the Liverpool journalists say a deal is in the works and should be completed this month. The exact opposite happened in the summer.

Maybe Barto and the board cut off the supply to their mouthpieces so they can finish the deal in secrecy and avoid being humiliated like they were last summer.

B-Dog is learning, my man!
