Barcelona to make fourth £130m bid for Liverpool's Philippe Coutinho, Man City ready to pay £70m for Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez

Holy crap....what will City's line up look like with Sanchez in it!!?? <yikes>

As for Barca's offer. If it's £130 with a decent lump sum up front, take it. This entire episode is leaving a black cloud over our club and he sure as hell isnt worth £130m....not yet anyway....although I do believe that he's about to enter his best years and could very well become one of the best in the world. Could.

I agree. Must be a real offer, if not reject. Ig its a real amount all up front accept otherwise stuff it.

No way will Wenger part company with Sanchez for that price when there's more money than in the vaults of Fort Knox flying around for supposedly lesser players than the Chilean.

It won't be all up front. That ain't gunna happen.

But if it was a real £130m offer, not with ridiculous clauses, we can borrow what they owe us to reinvest in our team. This would mean the value, assuming the offer is a real £130m would be around £110-£115m. If there's one thing that I trust FSG to know, it's the value of money.

However if £50m of their offer is totally unrealistic. Tell them swivel and move on.

That's the issue. Imo they are playing to their fans. 16mil up front and 16mil per year is a offer asking for rejection.

Until they offer a real amount the guy is stuck. And I don't think they really want him... or if they do they are only on a nice to have buzz
 
All designed to get further into Courts and his advisers head. A coded message to say "ramp up being a ****"

And our message to them is Barca need to make a real offer.

I think the only time he really has to get nasty is if he goes in international duty but then the issue is he will be on the wrong continent when the window shuts.

Well if they do buy him, I have a feeling that we'll be in a similar position ourselves for the last few days of the window.
 
Revealed: Those Barca add-ons for Coutinho in full:_


  1. Slay the Nemean lion.
  2. Slay the nine-headed Lernaean Hydra.
  3. Capture the Ceryneian Hind.
  4. Capture the Erymanthian Boar.
  5. Clean the Augean stables in a single day.
  6. Slay the Stymphalian birds.
  7. Capture the Cretan Bull.
  8. Steal the Mares of Diomedes.
  9. Obtain the girdle of Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons.
  10. Obtain the cattle of the monster Geryon.
  11. Steal the apples of the Hesperides.
  12. Capture and bring back Cerberus.
N0.9 is the only one that looks like any fun.
 
Found this proper Barca forum, some of them on their are reasonable but some are like this tosser.

God knows how I dislike the board, but I don't see anything wrond with this approch in response to liverpool attitude. In normal circonstances you never keep a player who wants to leave."
