Evening eds

Ive read a few things today that suggests Barcelona are likely to capture Couts in January, or at least they will try to sign him. Do you think the club will block all attempts again from Barcelona or do you think we may well sell him this time. Also are talks/ meetings still taking place between Barcelona and Pipcos people?

Thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - firstly, I am not aware of any agreement. Coutinho wants out, we know that. Barcelona are keel and post July 1 PSG may be able to offer an option. Barcelona will talk to his representatives but it means little.}

I don't think he leaves til the summer. It we ardent in European cup after new year then it may be slightly more likely that he will go.

Ed002 is the July 1 for PSG due to FFP concerns over Mbappe?

{Ed002's Note - No, it is unrelated to Mbappe, it is related to the spending this year.}

Get the deal done and let him move in the summer. Then we have kieta in and time to replace couts.

{Ed001's Note - but also have teams knowing we have a wedge of cash in the bank from selling Couts....}

Thats very true ed but I don't see any way around that fact? We will sell him in the summer then look tp replace him with the funds. Can you see a way around it?

{Ed001's Note - only by doing what we did this summer and refuse to sell.}

Tbh Ed001, Coutinho will be gone in the summer. No way will Klopp and FSG put up with so much drama like they did this summer as it will just disrupt pre season and squad mentality like it did this time. Barcelona and PSG will come calling and we should sell to the highest bidder after finding a suitable replacement.
Btw Ed001, what would u do if Couts goes? Change formation? Sign a creative playmaker? Sign a CF and drop Firmino into midfield?

{Ed001's Note - change formation and sign a creative playmaker.}

Barca can go fly a kite if they think we will sell Cou in Jan, the worst time to sell your best player arguably and get a replacement. Barcelona is just posting crap to get their fans all ginned up again and soiling themselves, IMO. They can have him in the sumer. definitely not in Jan.

Like people stated on here the other day in the owners defence (when Macca said the club has always been for sale under them) everything is apparently for sale if someone offers enough money. And that will be the same for Coutinho. If Barcelona offer the right amount he will be sold regardless of what transfer window it is.
