Nah, don't think this can still happen. We should've paid 100M and Neymar to get him, now that's not possible anymore.

He does not fit at all. We lack a strategic/intelligent player who gives the team more structure in midfield in our squad besides Iniesta. Coutinho would make the team more disbalanced than it already is.
As for the LW position, we don't need another playmaker there, we need a fast goal-oriented winger who can make runs behind the defence. You cannot create chances if you only play with playmakers. Who are they going to pass the ball to? Our problem with Neymar was that he was trying to become a creator instead of playing like he did in the treble winning season, where he was more of a "runner-for-messi". Also, we would lose our strength at counter attacks.

Go 3 weeks back in the Ney thread, you find the same. The amount of rumors from reliable English journos compared to the Spanish is weirder.

Back then it was as much denial that P$G could pay such an obscene price for him. The Liverpool fans simple don't think the club will let him go. Difference of course being that Liverpool can stop this while we were powerless.

Yup, I also believe there is something and that he's coming. Next day's we will now more because we want to act fast.
Let them believe.
A lot of them are disrespectful to Barca also, I'm following the Coutinho thread on a Liverpool fc forum.

The same journalist that broke Neymar’s move to PSG is now saying his replacement has been signed and he said Philippe Coutinho will be a Barcelona player in the next few days. According to a report from Marcelo Bechler,

Hi I'm on holiday and on my phone scrolling through this thread. You had coutinho up until this afternoon when Lallana was confirmed out for three months. Now coutinho is staying put and he's accepted that. Things can change but it will take a bid above 100m euros for us to accept. Deal was 120m euros in 3 instalments of 60 then 35 then 25 over 4 windows plus 20 in add ons.

Let's face it. Liverpool struggles year after year just qualifying for UCL. There are not beating Man U, Man City, Chelsea for the EPL this year either or the next. Coutinho sees same shit repeating year after year and wants out while taking a pay cut.
All it takes is Coutinho going on strike. Right now, Coutinho does not seem to have balls Moneymar has.

Makes sense why as of today we are being linked to Lemar.

Lemar seems almost as good as Coutinho at less than half the price. He seems to have a fetish for arsenal strangely.
