Yep, I agree. But at this stage in the window, unless there are cheaper options, I'd take him.
I don't have too much of a problem with Ox. Love the fact that he wants to reject Chelsea in favour of us.
Sometimes a player needs a change of scenery and the right manager to get the best out of him.
Not sure what his best position is. His goals and assists record isn't great. Would he be more of a number 8 type midfielder?

No.
I hope so
*Kicks ground sheepishly*
I'd take both also, there's something about a player wanting to join us that I admire. Might just motivate him to perform better. The Ox would be a great option for the wing. Lemar should be more of a facilitator in the middle.
Exactly all of this.
Sign both up! (Though that's probably Coutinho gone then)

Yep we won't sign both and keep Coutinho surely.
Listening to Andy Jacobs bleating on about how stupid Oxo-Cube is for wanting to go to Liverpool instead of the Chavs almost makes me positive about this. His pal is saying it is a strange decision. Yes, it's strange. Very strange. NO sez big Andy, it isn't strange it is stupid, it is very stupid. He's stupid because Chelsea keep their players fit and Liverpool have a bad injury record apparently. He also give us the back-handed compliment that Oxo will find it hard to get in our team.
It is nice that clubs might actually be choosing us over more monied and in recent years, more successful teams. That's VVD and now Oxo-Cube who seem to have favoured us over the Chavs.

We're keeping Coutinho. End of story.
Long running history of bad blood? Why is that?
Anyway, I can't remember many players we signed directly from Arsenal.
Last one I can remember was Michael Thomas. He never impressed me as a Liverpool player, and I'll forever remember *that goal*.
Before him, there was Ray Kennedy. A legend.
There were players who played for both clubs, but were not signed directly from Arsenal: Kolo, Anelka and Pennant.
Any others which I might be missing?
That's hardly "long running"' is it?
Supposedly, Bobby has a release clause that every club BESIDES arsenal can match to sign him
I never heard that before. But I love it!
I don't really get the Ox thing. I'm hoping I've missed something in his development over the last couple of seasons given I've not seen a great deal of him.
As things stand, I don't get what he offers beyond "decent squaddie". And sure, we need more of those, but for the figures being talked about you really expect more even in this market.

Totally agree. If we were getting him for what WBA got Gibbs for then great. But for that money surely he has to be better than what we've already got in the starting midfield. He clearly is not. Weird one.
Anything over 15-20 million with one year on his contract is ludicrous. He's a very inconsistent player.
