7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

[DonAK]

Wasn't there an improved bid for him?

Apparently increased bid to 89m.

MD also claiming his signing is independent from Neymar staying or leaving. Basically using the money they couldn't on Verratti, on someone else.

And apparently we were broke and had nothing to spend

Wonder how long we'll waste our time with him...

Wonder how long we'll waste our time with him...

Till 1 minute towards the end of the window.... and we'll sign Paulinho in that 1 minute.

 

[ThwiX]

I think he is coming, especially now that it looks like Neymar will stay.

We'd better borrow Madrid's faxing machine for this operation.

But not Verratti-like impossible do you think?
It might happen, imo.

I'd rather we spend big on him than buy mediocre players like Lima and Paulinho

That would be magical !!!


Then get Dybala next summer

 

[Zincubus]

Atleast someone who can create chances and remove the burden off MSN

.............Busi
......Roberto...Coutinho

is an acceptable midfield for now and he future

Busi- The DM
Roberto- The workhorse
Coutinho/Iniesta- The creative force

Yeah I could live with that midfield !!

 

[serghei]

Sign him up.

 

[Arkk]

either Eriksen or Coutinho for me. however without Neymar money im not sure how we can afford to buy a top 5 PL teams star player in this climate especially when average players like Lukaku and Walker are fetching ridiculous prices.

interested to see how Roberto does this season in midfield.

 

[wisconsincule]

So if this isn't fake news he would cost 120 or so I'd assume??

 

[springfield]

But according to people on this forum he's not worth the money because he is Brazilian... Brazilian people peek early and retire after age 25.

 

[Sepuldinho]

since verratti is pretty much ruled out, go all out for Coutinho. Problem is, will Liverpool sell their best player? and we need to get rid of some of our midfielder, Arda, Gomes, Rafinha can go

 

[springfield]

Coutinho should not be plan B for Verratti. Totally different player. If they decide to buy Coutinho as the only midfielder this season then Valverde needs to make sure that others can do the job to control the midfield and control the intensity.
