Philippe Coutinho

[VladimirIlyich]

Need Klopp to ply him with LFC themed vodka.

Otherwise known as 85% water.

[Grinch]

Has really took his game up to the next level, shall have no bother slotting into any side in the world and winning numerous trophies, just a shame it won't be with us.

[TheHowieLama]

We have had better players leave to win things

[Einch]

Consistent.

[Wezza]

Barca spend heavily on wages which is their biggest problem with “fair play”. They have recently renewed Messi and Suarez not to long ago, so can’t afford both Griezmann and Phil. The other thing re: Griezmann is he does have a release clause and Phil doesn’t which may improve our chances of keeping him.

Shows how good a season' he's having. 3 players in the top 10. We are an exciting team. Pity about Man City and the draws.

Better than De Bruyne too.

[Elite]

Coutinho is better than De Bruyne, Imagine Coutinho in that City team!

[LFC 6 Times]

Coutinho is bizzarely good at football. In the Top 10 best players in the world at the moment. His dribbling, shooting and passing are absolutely sensational.

[sir roger]

We all know his qualities but what impressed me particularly last night was a moment when we were  2 or 3 up & he chased one of the Swansea wide guys for about 40 yards & ended up putting the ball out by Klopp's feet.

 

It's one of the reasons I don't give Hendo too much stick , as I remember him years ago in some Europa League place where they still point at planes, vaulting over 2 sets of pitch barriers and knocking a ball boy over in his desperation to get the ball back quicker for a throw in.

Seems odd he lines up alongside Lovren and Mignolet . You would have thought that could have been addressed before he got itchy feet

State of this fucking cunt.

 

We need to dig our heels in with this one. The lad is tied to a long contract, I don’t give a toss if he downs tools after the summer - don’t cave in to these insidious worms.

 

Come on, Real. Swap with Asensio.

[Lee909]

Talk that Ronaldo will leave Madrid in the summer. Probably got the arsehole they are so far behind and Messi is earning more. Anyway wonder if Madrid might get involved for a move for him and if that Ronaldo (tge real one) telling him not to go to Barca, was the first shot from Real to getting a deal done. I'd rather sell him to them. Not that they are not cunts either but they dont plsy the poverty card.

[Lee909]

From anything I've seen he is a completely different player. Scores far less and looks far better playing wide.

[Lee909]

No

 

He is gone and for what? Barcelona a dying team when we are so very clearly on the rise. Thats why I dont argue when people say footballers are thick as pigs shit.

 

Not sure you can call a team that far ahead in La Liga a dying team

[VladimirIlyich]

Barca are dead, They are an ex team, they be shit spanish league is aids.

And yet we couldn't beat one of their also rans twice. The Spanish league is pretty strong even when you take out Barca and Real.

I disagree. If you take out those two, the League becomes a second level league like the French. As for the two draws against Sevilla, we made them look shite. Yes, our defence is wank, but across the two games we were vastly better.

[Rotpeter]

Spanish teams don't dominate Europe the way they have if they are shit.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Spanish teams don't dominate Europe the way they have if they are shit.

I didn’t say they were shit. The two that have dominated Europe’s main competition recently are the two that I’m talking about taking out. English teams will be dominating Europe this year.

 

You take out last years winners and this years likely winners from the premier league, you’re left with United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs. Take out Real you’re left with Valencia, Atleti, Sevilla. Eibar, Villarreal. The two mega clubs plus everybody else. They’d be destroyed by it. Same with Germany. The English league has much more depth at the moment, as I think we will see going forward.

I know you didn't say shit, I was just paraphrasing oft heard opinions.  League competiveness is shit.  There are decent teams outside the top 2.  Not elite, but this is not the scottish league.  

 

I'll bet Spain has provided more european finalists over the last 20 years than anyone and with much less cash than you have sloshing around the EPL.

I’d probably take that bet but even then, I bet you next to none of them are outside of the two being taken out.

[Pureblood]

Sevilla's virtual monopoly on the Europa League would suggest they are no mugs.  However I would agree with the general point that the PL is on the rise again. 

[Rotpeter]

I’d probably take that bet but even then, I bet you next to none of them are outside of the two being taken out.

 

The difference as I see it is a top 6 vs a top 2-3.  2nd tier teams are as strong as each other.

We should just hire the Manc cunts fax machine.
