Danny 2,206 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 It's too late in the window to take this money now, Coutinho is never worth 100m+, but if Pogba can go for however much he did then Coutinho should go for more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,663 Posted August 5, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted August 5, 2017 After what's happened with Neymar there can't (well shouldn't) really be an argument about "if player X is worth this then player Y must be worth that". We've just reached a stage now that football has completely lost touch with money and what anything is "worth". Two weeks ago I was saying we should never pay more than £35m for Sigurdsson now well pay £50m and it'll look like nothing. Horrible sport.

SirBalon 2,692 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Prices had gone crazy before Neymar went to PSG for €222m two days ago. Infact the Neymar transfer and how it happened will effect football in a more negative manner than just over inflated prices. In years to come overvalued players (price wise) will have seemed like the lesser of the evils. But Neymar went for a buy-out clause and wasn't part of two clubs negotiating, we can't forget that. Gareth Bale for example has a €500m buy-out clause... If he leaves, it won't be for that because Real Madrid are looking to off load him. Do you see?

That won't stop people from saying if Neymar was worth £200m then our player here is worth at least £120m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 1,437 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 There's really no amount of money that would leave me happy to see us part with our critical playmaker at this stage in our preseason. We're back in the champions league, Klopp has had a full preseason with the team and this is a really key juncture in his tenure.... this has to be the year we consolidate and finish top 4 again whilst also competing in the UCL.... gotta stop the yoyo-ing. I can't see any deal with barca for coutinho not screwing us for next season short of a swap deal for 2 to 3 first 11 quality players. At this late stage there'd be no hope we could adequately replace him for the coming season and we'd get bent over a barrell on price if we tried. Andy carroll mark 2.

Still think you can't really be sure until the window closes. Other reports say it's a done deal. Personally I hope he stays, can't stand seeing the Premier League lose top talent to Spain.

Barça apparently got a phone call from Juve stating that they're willing to listen with André Gomes on the table as part of the deal. These are rumours though! I would be VERY happy with that!

Light years Anyway, apparently Barca disagree and are going all out for Coutinho and won't give up. £100m and Gomes now on the table... 'apparently'.

Toinho 2,210 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Coutinho will end up at Barcelona eventually. Part of me wants it to happen now because it'll be funny... but I am also in a good position to watch the EPL again and wouldn't mind seeing him play if I watch those red bastards.

They get rid of Zlatan, they win the league and CL. They get rid of Sanchez, Puyol, Xavi, and Villa, they win the treble with a 'rookie' coach. Stop talking bollocks.
