A new week. Am gunna miss all of the Barcelona gossip now that they've retracted their interest 
Does sound like Barcelona wanted to show their supporters that they had "tried" their best to replace Neymar. Not sure they were that keen after their first offer was rejected. Their last offer was just a laughable PR stunt and no better than their previous ones. The person who had lost most from this seems to have been Coutinho. He has lost the fans. But a few good (important) goals might start his rehabilitation*Barca offered us some money for Couts. (£114m)
*The majority wast o be paid off like a mortgage (£80m over 5 years)
*But only if he becomes the greatest player ever and cures cancer while he's at it. (seriously ludicrous add-ons like winning Ballon d'ors etc, something Neymar wasn't even able to do at Barca)
*Computer, or in this case FSG, said No. (Rejected in a matter of minutes)
*Barca threatened to take their bat home if we didn't accept by 7pm (seriously they threatened to end interest if didn't accept an already rejected offer)
*Everyone's laughing at how cheap Barca are coming off (Everyone's laughing at how cheap Barca are coming off)
