Player Valuation: £70m
Huge loss for Newcastle that. He's a top talent, makes me wonder why someone like Liverpool or Arsenal came in?
Really??
I'd have Coutinho over Moses any day
Watch the Toon slip lsowly down the table - their best player by a mile
what is with newcastle buying all these frenchies? why so many? is that all their scouts know? hardly any of them are actually in the squad?
moses actually has something to his game.
mate im not being funny but coutinho was only at espanyol for the second half of a season, maybe he had a really good start and then tailed off towards the end?Watch him score a Hattrick now.
But, if anyones ever met me, and had a discussion about Coutinho or Liverpool generally, i'll tell them the same story over and over. The kid was on loan at Espanyol, and was just destroying opposition, after opposition. There was talk over the first 2 months of Barca, Real wanting him, and Inter (the CL winning side) wanting him back from Loan.
The talk suddenly stopped, and literally disappeared off the radar. Then, i remember watching Revista de la Liga and the presenter asking Gaizeka Mendieta and Guilleme Balague (an Espanyol fan), who has been the best player, revelation and the biggest disappointment. Balague went after Mendieta and said Coutinho as the biggest flop of the second half of the season because he had just never seen a player go from so brilliant, to just pure poison, and the presenter looked shocked, Mendieta then agreed.
So naturally, when he signed for Liverpool, i watched and saw the exact same thing happen, the Kopites claim him as their new prince, a god like figure, so i kept telling them the same story, and they'd have none of it. Now, they're just raging at him, which doesn't surprise me. He seems alot like a luxury player. When the pressure was off, he stepped up, now, with Liverpool in the hunt for fourth he doesn't seem to be up for the fight. The lad has huge ability, but his determination and form clearly wanes quicker than Anichebe's.
