Daily Mail - Barcelona have bid £72m for Coutinho

I wouldn't read too much into this. They are known to make up immigration stories.

Just hope Phillipe doesn't see the Mail today.

Barca will be hard to resist.

Cant see Countinho going to barca, hes good but not good enough for them and has just signed a ridiculous contract with Liverpool. non story imo

[m3sye]

He would start for them in the middle 3 that is not in question

Also the story is now reported by Joyce and basomcbe so its 100% true
He will stay if HE wants too if he wants to go I would expect him to go for 85/90 if not 100 if Kyle walker is 50m

Think that was a Panorama clip - its in the history of LFC videos/dvds. Taken from the first televised Match of the Day game against Arsenal. Quite some crowd. Can't compare it today, although that doesn't stop people writing nonsense about the Kop and the Anfield crowd. Its gone, and that time has gone.

As I just said on the Spuds thread, the only way I see us selling Coutinho is if we get a world record bid AND sign Keita AND Coutinho asks to leave.

I can't see all three of those happening.

Everton Football Club to face Ruzomberok in the Europa League
If you've never heard of them.

Everton are a small club based in Liverpool.

Meanwhile, at White Hart Lane...

If Liverpool are reporting "Klopp on Philippe Coutinho future" then it sounds like the report was actually true, otherwise I guess they wouldn't have published such a news story:

If Joyce and baacombe report it tends to be true more often than not

Neymar is about to go to PSG for 200m so the pressure will mount
I think we will get 1 more year out of him tbh

Fair play to sakho he really is putting the graft in..getting into the gym around 8am and leaving at 9pm last few nights

The problem with Klopp saying we will not consider any offers for Coutinho and that we are not selling club, is that it is exactly what RB Leipzig has been saying about Keita and that they wouldn''t consider any offers for him, yet we still went back allegedly with a higher 2nd bid earlier this week...

It will be crazy if Neymar goes. 200m is a lot of money for 1 player, no matter how good he is.

Barcelona really need to sort themselves out though.

Suarez is 30. Messi is 30. Iniesta is 33 and only started 40% of games last season. Rumours to sell Neymar who is only 25.

They rely on their attack too much and it's aging. Last won the champions league in 14/15.

A huge spend will be needed soon or they will fall behind Real and the rest of europes elite too much.

I don't think he will go this summer but Coutinho is 25 now and there has to be a time where he will think that he would like to win trophies and at Barca he'd have the chance of winning a double every season.

[jammy-git]

I could see him potentially leaving next summer, but he'd be joining Barcelona just as their greatest players retire. Would be want to join a team on the decline?

Agree, he may as well just stay at one

You used to be half good at this - mind you that was when you had your best pal CIE to back you up -
nice to see you both back after 100m been spent, if they dont go to plan are you both vanishing again like last year?

[Black can man]

Wouldn't it be funny if Coutinho demanded to leave like some of you have hinted that Dick van Dyke should do .


Kind of Karma eh .
