Next South American we try and sign must have a paragraph included in the contract that he accepts he won't be allowed at any future date to sign for Barcelona whilst at LFC.
So no more South American players for us then.
GERMANS!!!!!!°°° LOL
ZzzzzzzzzYou can't really blame Coutinho for wanting a move to a bigger club

Yeah, just like Ronaldo eh.
Keita has not forced the issue. He also had the option of handing in a transfer request.You can't really blame Coutinho for wanting a move to a bigger club
RB Leipzig braced to lose Liverpool target Naby Keita next summer
Yep agree on that. It was likely he would leave at some point in the near future, personally I thought next summer, but with the Neymar transfer obviously things have come forward a year.Same here tbh.
Some fans are threatening to give up following Liverpool (PL in general) because of it[HASHTAG]#kneejerk[/HASHTAG]
My hope is that we get as much from Barca as possible, tell them to stop low balling and hold them to hostage to their desperation.
This is my worry over losing Couts, not actually losing him, but losing him and not replacing him. Klopp is stubborn and FSG are tight, its not a great prospect for transfers.
There has been too much 'make do' from LFC in recent weeks and frankly that does not bode well for FSG's future with the Club, people are starting to get frustrated that every little bit of progress we make is not backed up and we slip back to not much better than where we started.
anyway within all this anger at coutinho, what i really want to know is how @astro is taking all this that they couldn't sign their top 2 signings and their star player wants to leave.......
Noticed alot of opposition fans doing this. Coming here saying we shouldn't begrudge Couts want to leave for someone like Barca and the truth is that most of us don't (read back). We've been resigned to the fact he will go as some point in the next couple of years for sometime.You can't really blame Coutinho for wanting a move to a bigger club
Think we're worried about the time, that its so close to the deadline and worry of a replacement. And that Klopp and FSG haven't shown much savvy in the transfer window thus far.
And just to nullify the VvD comparison, yes we're in a similar situation with Couts but unlike Soton fans we wont begrudge a transfer and shout insults at Barca just because they want to sign one of our players. As long as we can get a ridiculous fee for Couts then thats football and all the best to him, think Soton fans should feel the same about VvD.
Behave yerself, Bobby. At least try and make a valid point.
Do you think he was sought after through the "barren years" (
)? . He's only recently started to show some consistent form and almost immediately they're after him. Do you think anyone would have offered anywhere a top fee for him a couple of years ago?
Really not fussed I resigned to losing him last year to Barca so sort of [HASHTAG]#calledit[/HASHTAG]
Just hope we get a good deal
Timing is very ****ty but if I am Klopp I can use this to galvanise us.
Ftr I would love to see us shove him in the reserves but it just won't get us anywhere
Match day tomorrow
Maybe just concentrate on the league this year
As good as city are they can only play 11 at one time
Just hope we get a good deal

Amazingly not many do feel this but if you need to tell yourself that you are the only paragons of goodness work away
The "make do" phrase is used by disgruntled fans - it's not the declared intention of FSG. They've shown a readiness to spend on worthwhile targets, but aren't so keen to spend on second best. You could just as easily describe this as sound business sense.
Klopp has said many times he doesn't want players who aren't his primary targets, whether or not that's wise is something else we'll have to wait and see.
Speaking of which - the window doesn't close for a while yet.

I don't get why they are angry tbh... I knew the minute the club pulled this back injury that he was off.
Anyway, not on the WUM and the transfer request has take everyone by surprise but not sure you can say all that.
Yeah he was nothing at Inter and he's made his name here at Liverpool but he's hardly been ungrateful (except this instance). He's never moaned about getting paid **** all and even when sterling was getting paid **** loads and coutinho was on what 30k a week, he never asked for a pay rise. He was on 75k for ages even though he was carrying the team and its literally last January where he's done a VVD and got his 150k a week which he wants to renege on.
He could have left ages ago and earnt a lot more but he stayed with you boys through the barren years
Not really a meltdown
You just confirm my whole point. He's hardly being paid '**** all' is he ... now you're going to say 'in comparison to whatever top star, he sure is' I know
But, the amount of money these people are paid (at the PL and equivalent international top level) is sickening ... 30k a week, ****ing hell, I'd be crying in my morning coffee every damn day man, every damn day
We provided him with the platform and at no point can you say he has carried the team, no way man. As I and others have said over the last pages, he's a bit of a fair-weather player actually and goes missing frequently so in that sense we won't miss him, especially if the club actually replaces him with a player(s) of quality who show(s) more consistent application. I'm hardly optimistic on that front for obvious reasons
Anyway, as I said, the amount of money, greed and cynical opportunism in this game is completely sickening and farcical. These dumb ****s and their talentless, work shy hangers on like agents, wives/gfs, associates, are lucky they're good at kicking a bit of synthetic leather around on the grass because I'm sure they'd genuinely have something to moan about if their Lamborghinis, Range Rovers and new-build mansions were suddenly taken away and they had to live in the real world on a real salary for a minute. The whole thing's an utter joke and disgusting and the fact that this industry/sport and the players involved in the extortion are worshipped by so many people around the world and occupies so much of our time/interest in the various ways (through the media, forums like this, chat with mates) makes it no better either. You have to look at it and say can't we be better than this corporate cesspit, really

Excuse me that's make do tm.... as in that's my catchphrase.
Lfc has shown huge willingness to settle for second best in the past. Mario balotelli.
