if he is not going to get much game time now we have Grujic he might as well go. He was a enthusiastic and always tried hard, but just lacked the physical presence. He often bounced off players when trying to tackle them. Good luck to him t least he will get regular game time at Stoke.
I do wonder if Klopp plans to keep Firmino as his striker for many of the world physical games. Mane Weijnaldum Coutinho Firmino Go all out against the weaker sides: Can Weijnaldum Man Firmino Coutinho Sturridge Weijnaldum has apparently played this role for The Netherlands.
Good move for Allen if he goes there. Hughes has them playing the right way and Allen will fit in nicely.
I hope he doesn't plan on sticking Coutinho out on the left as you suggest, he's poor there imo and really makes an impact on the game. He needs to be in the No.10 role. That or drop him deeper alongside a DM like Can.
I'm not that bothered either but I think it'll happen so may as well go along with it for the time being
Hardly in lastyear of contract. Nobody is going to bid more. Its a straight match the bid scenario. So thats another not good enough player gone but not sure we will get any better.
And Joe Bugner, for those of us of an old vintage. Or 'Aussie' Joe Bugner, as he evolved into. That is as evolved as it gets in a continent where the natural fauna don't give birth to fully formed offspring.
