Barca didn't need him a month ago.

This talk didn't just start yesterday. They made the 1st bid on July 20. They had a good idea that they were losing Neymar then.

So?

Barca's needs and Coutinho's dreams aren't the only issues involved here.

And surely they were in contact with him before July 20. So yeah, this could have happened a month ago.

When can we expect Barca to issue an apology? That's the way it works right.

Yeah, and to think I was so close to buying the home kit with his name on the back this year... frick that noise now.

I guess I could go with Hendo, but may just go blank (since it looks good w/o a name anyways)

Go blank. Always go blank. I've learned my lesson in the past several times now.

Players only put in a TR as a last resort... From the sound of it, he has told the club he wanted to go when Barca came calling...

If you want a shirt with a name on it, buy it at the end of the season. Even if the player moves on, it still commemorates a time when he was on the team.

Joyce, Pearce, and Reddy are probably the most reliable.

You still have to be 100% truthful about how bad you want to go and how far you are willing to take it. There is a difference between "I would like to go there, but wouldn't mind staying if a fee can't be agreed on" and "I really wish to move and will submit a transfer request if it doesn't happen."

Did that happen? I've been out for a bit, haven't caught up... I hadn't heard that..

Everything I've read indicates that he would like the move but wouldn't force his way out. Suddenly he hands in a transfer request the day before the season starts.

okay.. I assumed that was his position too, but it was more speculation...

If it did play out that way, I would agree that's pretty shitty...

A pretty unenvious situation for FSG... their detractors are licking their lips either way..

IMO.. ultimately, I think its up to Klopp... If he wants him to frick off, FSG will sell and take all the heat for it..

I have one blank (from the first year of the BR/Warrior era) and the 2nd place year with Gerrard on it... Does it look good in person blank? If so I'll probably just do that

yes it does... I would have went Gini if I had got one with a player..

I was kinda hoping for one with the UCL badges, but didn't want to frick around and get WU on the sleeve if I ordered it...
