Unless Barca are paranoid about Neymar convincing Coutinho to join PSG this summer, I don't get them trying to buy him this month. The league title is all but wrapped up, and he wouldn't be able to play CL this season. And he might not even be first choice right now.

I don't think most of their supporters will be all that surprised to be honest. United knew what they were getting when they brought him in. They gambled on it being worth trading in expansive football and putting up with these type of shenanigans to increase their odds of winning trophies, and now they have to live with their decision. :manny:

to rest Iniesta for the CL. The other back cms don't cut it in the league.Plus the price would probably hike up if Brazil wins the world cup so they don't want that shyt to drag on.

Denis Suarez can play league matches then. He's not Coutinho but he ain't trash either. More than likely what I think happens is they do the deal now but Coutinho doesn't leave until the summer.

This is the fact. United were absolutely desperate and knew they had no choice but to put up with Jose's antics. To be fair he might have dissed Scholes but was careful enough to repeatedly praise him as a player and even state he's part of the reason the Club was as successful but he would always stick one in as a manager. Jose has also had a chip on his shoulder because he was never a player at any level. So it is what it is.

If liverpool had a single ounce of sense they'd wait till after the world cup. If coutinho puts great performances and wins the world cup with Brazil they can literally ask for 180-200 million. Kmowing how desperate barca are and how insane city and psg are with spending, one of them will actually pay that money. If i was on the board, I'd tell coutinho that you're not leaving in the winter, wait till the summer and fukk doing a pre deal now. Make that paper in the summer when his stock rises even further. The ball is in their court.
