Coutinho update - Southampton expected to raise the bid to 12m € in the next days, according to Sky Italy

I'm not so sure about Coutinho now after hearing more about him, but hey ho Pochettino has worked with him before, so if he thinks he can do the business........
 
Peronally I'm really unsure about Coutinho. Obviously has talent but think he will find it very hard to adjust to the English game
 
Our new friend Guillem Balagué rates him:

"Coutinho great talent,certainly worth £10m. And he is quick, special. Will take time to adapt but will offer magic straight away if he comes"

Thinks he'll go to Liverpool though, but that was before we upped our bid.
 
Think a loan move would be best for him if he comes to any Prem team, club could assess how he looks in a faster paced league.
 
Would love Biglia. Thought he was awesome at the Markus Liebherr Trophy in the summer even if it was a exhibition match.
Like the mirror description of midfield schemer.
Too many rumblings for us not to sign another player

Certainly a risk, but there's no doubting his talent...like Gaston, he needs to learn when to move the ball on rather than attempting to dribble through a maze of players, but £10m isn't an outrageous sum for a player at his age, with his skillset.
 
Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Italia: http://www.gianlucadimarzio.com/cal...elhanda-offerta-del-southampton-per-coutinho/

"Inter back to the office for Belhanda. The attacking midfielder Montpellier can be the heir to Sneijder, Inter thinks. 12 million the cost of the card, contacts made with the agents. Inter is trying to catch him, but he wants to postpone the deal in June. But Belhanda like a lot, it was also in Appiano Gentile for a visit a few months ago. Continues the assault by the Premier to Philippe Coutinho. Southampton is ready to offer 12 million, Inter can falter. Southampton coach Pochettino, who coached last year Coutinho Espanyol. You know him, he wants to bring in Premier."

Best player from all three teams, that day. Friendly or not, you can see why the big boys are watching him.
 
And biglia looks quality, just think cork and Morgan superb and not sure we need to spend 8million in the area at this moment
 
@piercy360: "Liverpool scout player, Liverpool like player, Liverpool bid for player, Southampton sign player. Ramirez, Forren and now possibly Coutinho"

Agree about cork and Morgan but adding quality improves squad and strength of whole team. Having those three with Davis and JWP as back up would be good.

Remember where we are heading...
