Ah - you buy all that do you? Klopp is the manager, and it's his job to manage in a way that he thinks will bring the best results for the team - not to pander to the ego of self-important individuals. Do you think Coutinho would have been treated differently elsewhere? Will he be allowed to dictate at Barca? Of course not. All of this stuff by Coutinho is just an attempt by his camp to justify his current stance so it looks like his position is untenable. He didn't get on with the manager? Yet he managed to sign a bumper contract a few months ago. It's bullshit.
So, he will tske his foot off the gas by about January then. No chance we are gonna be close to winning the league
No i'm saying that brazillian side is **** so even if Couts doesn't play they'd still pick him. They are still picking the likes of robinho and ****ing fred
maybe he won't push that extra yard to get a tackle in, or maybe he'll bottle a 50/50 so he doesn't get injured. Loads of players do that for the world cup and especially if hes thinking he'll go to barca. Just my opinion
If you bring a civil case you are allowed to have access to all e-mail communication and telephone records. A decent PI will find the links easy. We wouldn't do that though - it'd be ****ing suicide knowing how many times we've done it ourselves.
FSG have backed themselves into a corner. Let's assume they're a company of their word. If so, we won't lose Coutinho but we also don't get VVD as they stated we won't be back in for him. Read on Empire of the Kop earlier that Klopp is after an "experienced midfielder". Are they a reliable source or just click bait?
My guess is we wont be signing anyone else, unless its VvD, and thats a decreasing likelihood. Didn't get who we wanted so Klopp is going to pout and FSG are going to rub their hands together with all the money they haven't had to spend
How can you 'prove' that a manager meeting a player means they have discussed a contract? I mean you are the one being obtuse here and denying any circumstantial evidence, so how does a meeting between a player and a manager 'prove' anything? (Unless they put it in the autobiography later, like Jaap Stam did about Slurgy).
I can see him taking up Studge's bed in the infirmary @ March time. Still makes total sense to keep him though if Barca don't cough up the £135m - cash
