If Barcelona recent purchase record is anything to go by, it will be back.Seems that coutinho has been told by Barca, and a lot of the more reliable journos are saying-it's now or never. If he doesn't go to them this summer then they won't come back in for him next year as they'll have the position sorted. ...
Why wouldn't they be in for him next summer ?!
Who are they going to sign to succeed iniesta in the next two weeks ?
Behave , it's a load of bs to try and make life difficult between the player and he club.
Behave , they've been tapping him up for the past 18 months.They were not interested in him until neymar went, so I'd assume they see him as fitting neymar's position not iniesta's. Thats more of where we saw him playing this year, not where he's historically been playing.
This just stinks of not cup-tying him.
Yep.This just stinks of not cup-tying him.
But he won't be cup-tied if he plays in the qualifying rounds, will he?This just stinks of not cup-tying him.
I think the club is trying to get some players in before they sell Coutinho.Sore back me bollocks.
If Barca are offering £130m just sell the twat and be done with it.
If we can't get deals done we can just muddle on with what we have
But he can still play in the qualifiers for us and then play in the group stages for Barca. The rules have changed.This just stinks of not cup-tying him.

They hadn't publicly bid for him until neymar had left but they were certainly interested.
He's a totally different player to Neymar
That's interesting. Wasn't aware the rules had changed. I thought that article was a strong sign that he was off because, like dmish said, he wouldn't be cup-tied.But he can still play in the qualifiers for us and then play in the group stages for Barca. The rules have changed.
I think that's why they want coutinho AND Dembele.So what you're saying is, that if they buy him, he wont be played in Neymar's position on the left hand side of their front 3, he'll be played in a deeper role like their number 10 or 8 role? And they'll need to sign another expensive player to fill that Neymar gap? I think the opposite personally.
Yeah he can now in theory play in both legs of the qualifiers, get us qualified and then fuck off to barca and still be able to play for them in the champions league. If he played for us in the group stages that would then cup tie him. Bit of a cheat really as i'm sure some teams will hold onto players until after their qualifiers.That's interesting.

Looks like Barca have signed that ex-spurs Paulinho for the middle of the park.
Oh ok, didn't know that. To be fair, Pearce and co at the Echo have maintained that Coutinho is continuing to receive treatment at Melwood for his back.But he can still play in the qualifiers for us and then play in the group stages for Barca. The rules have changed.
Tbf you'd have to be mad not to accept a £130Mil bid

Build what? We sell him this season and forget top 4, we'll be lucky to be in top 4.Sell him to fuck we haven't addressed any positions bar one this summer so we ain't gonna do Shit anyway. Might as well cash in and build on what we have.
