7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

Coutinho can certainly play AM in Iniesta's spot. He is just one of those AMs that will bring you more goals than control.

and we need control, if we dont have it our slow granniea like busquets, pique will get exposed on regular basis

Either Coutinho adapts to playing as a CM along Arthur and Busquets, or a LW with Messi as a CF and Dembele/Malcom as a RW eventually

 

[kattanib]

I honestly feel Salah would be a perfect fit for us as a RW with Messi in CF and Coutinho as a LW

41212 fifa style but lacks pace/is pretty narrow. i guess if Alba and Semedo bomb forward it could work

sell Dembele, mold Malcom into a CAM/RW and get Firmino when the time comes to replace Suarez

we should of just got Hazard to replace Neymar like for like. instead we bought a raw 21 y.o with attitude issues and Coutinho who just doesn't fit in any formation we play.. and then theres Malcom, fuck knows where he fits in all this

Hazard said too often that he wants to move to Real Madrid. We would lose our pride if we still wants to buy him.

Florentino is obsessed with Neymar. We still have the chance to get Hazard.
I am glad Griezmann rejected us in summer
I don't want France version of Thomas Muller in our team

We have plenty of control with Busi and Arthur though. Also, Alba is solid defensively, very fast and good in 1 vs 1. We can do with Coutinho as a left side attacking midfielder. That's his best position imo.

No we have more control with Busi, Arthur and Rakitic/Vidal

We can't do with Coutinho as LAM

And no, that's not his best position either

Our pride went down the drain when Bartomeu was elected

How Coutinho doesn't fit our system? Under Klopp he played LW and LMF, he did so well in both positions. Question the tactics and training, not the player who proved himself under differemt managers.

I wonder how we survived with Iniesta as a pure AM all these years.

 

[Vilarrubi]

Phil to score long range shot tomorrow

Iniesta was a lot more defensive.


Edit: to clarify: Iniesta is a midfielder who can play as a winger, Coutinho is a winger who can play as a midfielder.

Only since Lucho years.
