Philippe Coutinho

[vuji_31]

We will take even 10mil, just take him.

 

[khaled_a_d]

Apparently about to make it permanent deal, fee around 15-20M.
Good deal if true

 

[Luftstalag14]

I guess any bit of money we get for him helps. Also takes him off our wage book.

 

[vuji_31]

Anything just take him.

we will take 110mil loss non him with happy tears.

wan't it supossed to be 40 mil ?

 

[khaled_a_d]

wan't it supossed to be 40 mil ?

That was the buy option, meaning it was the maximum amount we could negotiate
Truth is, he is 30 in few weeks, have been a bust for 4 years, has one year left in contract, huge wage that we can't afford to say "hey , we are going to force you to honour your contract here" and he wants to stay in Villa. Never mind recent performances wasn't encouraging
We had no leverage, 10M would have been great

 

[Catta]

20mil is a fantastic deal, that is 20mil more than what he is worth.

 

[vuji_31]

Pjanic, Umtiti, Griezmann still to go.

1/4 biggest deadweights are gone.

Next are Neto, Lenglet, Braithwaite plus few tAleNtS.

 

[MTL_Barca]

Take the money and run.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

20mil and his wages.. Thank you Aston!!

 

[gasgas]

Just to mess with Barca or Villa told him to play shite so they can sign him cheaper

Can't win with this dude..

He's the poop that keeps reeking

 

[Morten]

If Aston Villa is willing to pay a decent amount for Coutinho, surely it should be possible for us to offload Hazard to Newcastle or something?

 

[Andresito]

20m is a good price all things considered.

 

[Messi983]

Romero says it's a done deal for 20m.

Would prefer to hold out a bit more and see if Newcastle would make a better offer but the club needs to sell some players before end of June.

 

[Porque]

Take the money.
