It's looking more likely he stays for now. Which you'd hope would be a good thing. But when he spends the next six months playing like a total fanny like Torres did, it might look like a serious blunder not taking the cash.

 

Damned if they do, damned if they dont.

He plays like a fanny and Barca will lose interest quite quickly. So I like to think he'll behave himself.

It makes you wonder whether they actually want to buy him. The offers they've put forward so far are actually laughable. Considering they've just had 200m paid to them you think they'd be making it tempting. It's either that or they've just completely misread the situation that we are in. If that is the case they obviously just think Coutinho refusing to play is going to force our hand to sell him on the cheap. In reality I think we wouldn't even sell him expensively unless it really was a stupid offer. Coutinho must be in despair now seeing those offers come in.

If he eventually gets back into a red shirt and plays like a twat, then he will be treated like torres and justifiably so. if he thinks not bothering his arse is the way to get a money move, then fuck him.

Hi last contract was negotiated with his previous agent as I understand it. Coutinho was so happy here and becoming our highest earner (or same as sturridge?) that either he or his then agent  didnt want or ask for a sell on clause.

 

Im pretty sure joorabchian became his agent not long after signing the 5 and a half year deal. Whether that was just co incidence I dont know.
