Klopp has already had to offload one unhappy player in Coutinho after the Brazil international made it clear he would not let a second attempt to sign him by Barcelona pass him by and the club eventually relented after a £142million offer was accepted.

“There was no other option,” said Klopp. “I knew there was a moment when it would come up again in this transfer window and it came up massively.

“It would have been very difficult if we say – and we could have done of course with his contract – ‘You have to stay here’.

“(I asked myself) ‘To use him as a player in the second part of the season did it make sense? Do I think I can use him and can he help us?’

“It became 100 per cent clear, no chance. He was not ready to do that any more.

I'd like to quote my own previous post for this reason:

You are regularly my whipping-boy, Emre Can, but I want to thank you for giving 100% effort, both mentally and physically and emotionally, to the squad at least *until* that day you are no longer a Red.

Thank you for being a professional and a good teammate.

And thank you for not being a count, like Coutinho.

WTF is "left egg"?

This is exactly why I can't be mad at him. It'd be great to get money in return for him, but he's kept his mouth shut and worked hard for the club throughout his contract.

And now Keita seems to be trying to pull a Coutinho, so another reason why I can't hate on Phil too much. It was his dream to go to Barca and we were compensated well for it. Time to move on

That said, all aboard the Naby hype train :crossesfingers:
