Whats shocking is how bad Coutinho has been given the countless number of minutes he has been getting. Its not like he plays every other month. The guy has been playing pretty much all the time to get into continuity, match fitness and form. Yet, he hasnt scored in La Liga in 5 months and...

He's been absolute garbage and the only reason he's even talked about as a possible sub is because of his crazy wage and transfer fee. He would never feature for us again for the remainder of the season if he had been a cheap transfer. Its quite shocking really how bad he has been coming with...

Why do people think we can simply sell a player who has hardly played because of a terrible injury? He'll stay until he can prove that he can play a full season. We cant simply sell him.

Acceleration is far more important than pace for a midfielder. Arthur also has a very quick mind, which is also far more important than pace in our midfield. But BBZ will always need something to complain about to justify his ridiculous initial assessment of Arthur as a joke of a player and a...

People exaggerate the subs done. We dont have much depth and the veterans will not be subbed. GK or CBs are not usually subbed either unless its an emergency. That leaves very few substitute options if we want to use subs at all during a game.

You misunderstand. The fact that he can not play as a left forward is a negative. In an ideal scenario, our new striker should be able to play as left forward, but the striker market is awful so we have to be realistic regarding our options. I think it's highly unlikely that we'll keep Malcom as...

No I dont think Jovic is the future star of our team, but I hope I'll be surprised. Ideally our new striker should perhaps also be able to play as a left forward so he can get more playing time, but the market is awful and the rumored 50m tag isnt extortionate.

No, we can not always play Messi in the middle. The guy almost certainly does not want to play as a lone striker because he wont get the freedom to excel without a striker in front of him to keep the opposition defenders occupied. Messi has probably made that very clear to the coach. We're...

The guy was 19 years old at the time of his first season in Germany. But, OK, so you give up then. You're not providing any solutions other than to slap yourself in the face.

Scoring 9 goals in 1000 minutes in his first season is hardly bad. Thats quite close to a goal every 90 mins. This season, he has 22 goals in 2200 minutes, so its not like the difference is huge. I dont think we can wait for a new Mbappe and Eto'o any longer and just continue with old man...

Funny how people think it will be so easy to sell a player with an awful injury who cant play properly.

His form is falling off the cliff. Never scores anymore and looks sluggish.

I agree. We have to hope Chelsea can sign players this summer and wont be banned, because its not looking good for a market for Coutinho at the moment.

He hasnt performed in Europe so far this season though. He's played four games, so not much, but its something to take into account.

Thats not the real prices. Prices include both add-ons and fixed fees. The add-ons are mostly just very easy "achievements" like qualifying for the CL and similar.

I like his aerial ability. He'd certainly give us something different up front. But question marks about his mobility, positioning and link up play.

Average strikers are expensive in this terrible striker market.

Dembele has proven that he was a good signing. He's been one of our best players this season and crucial to our slow, old and sluggish attack. Coutinho has been stinking up the place and been a huge flop. So overall, our core players, Pique, Busi, Suarez, Messi are all getting older and moving...

When players turn 30+, they're likely to decline from their peak. Its just the reality. It has an effect on team performance. Spending money to make up for the ageing of our players and departure of our players is completely natural.

Yes, he desperately hopes he can say "I told you so", thats why he gets upset if he performs well and enters this thread as soon as he has a couple of below par games. Dembele was really unlucky to get injured when his form was amazing, just like Arthur, but we shouldnt be surprised. These...
