7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

[CatalinR10]

commentators were talking about which player will come out for dembele , one said it could be messi since he doesn't look 100% fit while the other said that messi will stay because even without any legs , he would be better than coutinho.

unreal levels of burn.

One of the few players trying to play quick pass and move. Sadly, no one else on the team is (until the entrance of Alena, who was excellent).

Coutinho, trying to play quick passes? I counted at least 6 times where he dribbled directly into a defender and got dispossessed.

I didn't see that. What I saw was Coutinho needlessly trying to dribble when he could have played a quick pass. Several times.

seems like our style of static posession football doesn't suit him at all

[MENTION=20741]Total-Football[/MENTION] man i just wish you were as consistent with your criticism of coutinho as you were with 20 year old dembele last season

your presence in this thread throughout this season has been sorely missing

Is Coutinho the worst player on the team now that Denis is gone?

 

[DonAK]

This guy plays like an anemic Neymar.

 

[te amo barca]

Plays like a mix of Arda and Denis, costs 160m.

 

[BarcaMessi]

better in the mid field.

at least he can dribble and threaten with his shot.

ALL other mid fielders including Alena can only do mostly static passes with 0 dribbling ability and 0 shot threat off of own dribble.

while not being the gun shooter bad boy turk that arda is or the stud denis is.

sensational beta.

Ship him off to Paris in the summer.

Gross. I don’t see any team wanting to buy him either.

He was dispossessed ZERO times. You're thinking of Semedo who was dispossessed THREE times.

No, not this game. If he had an open player, he released it quicker than anyone else.
