BREAKING: Barcelona have informed Liverpool that they have until Sunday evening to change their mind on Coutinho or it will be withdrawn.

 

 

On the plus side, this means that Coutinho may fully recover from his back injury by Monday morning.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

The only concern is that Barca ultimatum is a precursor to some sort of action by the player himself (strike action?) as surely they can't be THAT fucking stupid?

[Einch]

Cunts.

[Gym Beglin]

Fuck, we should probably sell him.

 

All jokin aside, this isn't done. They wouldn't keep coming back unless there was encouragement from somewhere.

 

The injury to Lallana puts £30m on top of their asking price for me.

 

Poor things.

I don't know. Considering the cheapskate bid I'd be having a few second thoughts if I was him now.

[Gym Beglin]

Coutinho would be lovely in their team, but not the regular game changer they need a la Neymar.

 

He'd get crucified for that fee.

[Lee909]

He wouldn't be playing wide left though. They wanted Dembele to play there and to drop Coutinho in the middle with Busquets and whoever else they hot there

The Catalan club has managed to do something which has served as a source of amusement for Liverpool’s power brokers. (Paul Joyce)

 

A bid Liverpool have twice told Barcelona not to make is rebuffed and their rivals’ next move is to threaten to take it away. (Paul Joyce)

Next, barcelona are going to stamp their ickle feet and scweam and scweam some more.

[Harry Squatter]

Barcelona are smug cunts who have rested on their laurels for a while. Now they realise they are shit and are panicking. They are miles away from Real Madrid at the moment.

 

I think that they thought they could rely on that front 3 for years and outscore most teams but they have neglected the rest of their team who have either got older and declined or bought average players to fill out the squad.

It's not that they're angry with us, just so, so disappointed with Liverpool's conduct. We have let them down.

[Pureblood]

All part of the dance.

[Arl arse]

They've sent us to the naughty step to have a good long think about what we've done.

[Jim MM]

We'll be disappointed with ourselves when we get a chance to watch this back. We're not really that kind of club.

[mattyq]

How could we turn down the honour of selling our best player to Barca? After all, they're more than a club

I so hope we get them in the Champions League. We're going to bum the entitled cunts so hard they;re not going to know what day of the week it is

Cunts!

They are making a pathetic show of exiting the whole shabby scenario trying to appear to be control  

[Mr Grumpy]

This only shows there's something going on that we don't know. Did FSG really reject Barca's bids outright like they told the media or did they say something along the lines of "come to us with something better"? 

 

It's hard for me to believe that Barca could be this stupid. 

[waddy78]

Barca are paniking, they are miles behind Madrid 0ne of their magical front 3 has gone they never replaced Xavi and in general the big names are aging and they have no back up to replace them. They can not let their fans think that they cannot buy ANYONE they want especially as one of the stars of world football has just made a mockery out of them and left to join PSG of all teams (not even considered before their new owners to be a big club) PSG done to Barca what Barca do to others and they fucking hated that, thats why imo Coutinho is so important to them, its to show they can still take any player they want to take and thankfully we are not playing ball with them (for now).

[clangers]

Amazing so they've given us till today or they'll pull a deal offering £16 million up front that we've already rejected?

[Barrington Womble]

Barca will improve their bid for Coutinho to £130m, although they will have to offer more than a guaranteed £80m before add-ons to tempt Liverpool, who value the player at £140m. (Express)

When you put it like that, it's a pretty pathetic bid, isn't it?

[Tj hooker]

16m up front when there sitting on 200m is frankly insulting or are there other factors in play here .

to be fair the way we negotiate transfers anything better than magic beans would be a result

[Chairman Meow]

You can't lowball a lowballer

 

I wish I was a lowballer

I wish the bid was a little bit smaller
