Philippe Coutinho

[Bobo32]

Yeah he was really very terrible.
There was a clip where some people here blamed Puig for a "headless chicken" run. Just before that, Coutinho had lost the ball by missing a very simple but very crucial pass, and then he was nutmegged when not only Puig but two or three other players very much expected him to do his job and keep the pressure.
He also had a perfect opportunity to make a great final ball, but very sloppily chipped something out of his arse just in the general direction of Puig (there were other options for him too)
He also had that moment where he tried the scissor kick in the defensive area, almost costing a goal

This wasn't everything, he was bad in general, but he also did one or two pretty good things, he has got some talent.

He looked bad yesterday. Would've expected him to deliver more effort with a clean slate under a new manager.

I'm hoping he is sandbagging because his agent has told him that a transfer move is happening in January.

Why do you hope he's sandbagging? If anything it's the polar opposite of what he should be doing when trying to get a new contract.

The thought behind the theory is that his agent has already made necessary arrangements and a transfer move is a near guarantee in January.

But that is wishful thinking. Its more likely that the club is stuck with this deadweight.

God help us if he starts today. Would very much prefer Demir or even LDJ ahead of him.

Demir sure, but not Luuk. Would rather start Pique at CF.

Fuck off in January please. Need the money for a striker smh.

 

[El Gato]

What money?
Dude's worth less than Jovic

 

[DonAK]

What money?

Getting rid of his massive salary would be good enough.

Become our very own Isco this guy. A very expensive one.

I mean, not really. My man constantly ostracized just for going on a pissup in Serbia. Still worth 20 even after amortisation.

Coutinho is like a 5M Hamit Altintop that is useless to have one way or the other.

 

[Raketa10]

All things considered he is probably this club's worst transfer of all time. For Griezmann we'll probably get some money back and Dembele, if he renews, is worth something and can actually contribute on the pitch. In contrast, Coutinho is worthless on the pitch and we can't get a dime for him. Unfortunately he is on Arda Turan level of usability right now. In addition to that he was loaned to Bayern 1,5 years after we have paid 140 mil for him. No one EVER did something like this, unbelievable stuff!

 

[OGbarca]

id be about as useful to barcelona lol

 

[DonAK]

Signing someone in January supposedly depends on a player like him leaving. We're doomed.
