The ****er on Sky Sports who just creamed himself at the 'news' of Ford's supposed TR has just previewed the Watford game by saying 'And they'll be missing Coutinho who has a back injury and has just handed in a transfer request'. This whilst a banner runs underneath him saying that the PA report that Liverpool deny this. Remember yesterday and the absolute certainty that Kirsty Gallagher was stating as fact that Dembele was on a flight to Barcelona? You can tell this is part of the Murdoch empire.

Anyway, as I was saying to Tobes and JOL yesterday, what difference does it make IF Ford puts in a TR? I would have expected that IF LFC were selling they'd have insisted on it anyway, as they did with Torres. But now Sky are getting defensive and quoting family members (his dad, undoubtedly) they're obviously reacting to LFC's denial. Point is, again, what is the difference though? There's nothing here that Luis didn't do at all.

I think part of this Coutinho False / "predicting the future" news is due to the aggressive Barcelona press who try to use the own Spanish media to force other journalists to positively predict the news, this indirectly puts pressure on the other party. If a bid has been made for a player, then they seem to claim that this player is already on the plane and has a designated shirt number.

Not to say we are truly innocent of this ourselves, however the crap news and speculation following Barcas transfers are almost wild in comparison.

On the subject of Ford handing in his transfer request. I personally am sticking too the official website for confirmation and If I want to read football Rumours the BBC Sport page is to be used at best. Speaking of which: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40897688. Published 7 minutes ago :).

Understand that Philippe [HASHTAG]#Coutinho[/HASHTAG] has handed in a transfer request to Liverpool. Player not happy with how situation has been handed

SkySports: "A close family member of Coutinho tells us.

'Philippe has tried very hard to find an amicable solution but to no avail.'
