KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Coutinho contract negotiations, Emre Can?

It looks like we are offering a new deal to Coutinho which will be great news if it can be agreed. His existing contract already runs to the summer of 2020 apparently so if he does sign a new contract hopefully he could be with us for another few years.

Emre Can's contract however runs out at the end of next season, just 18 months to run. I wonder what is happening with his contract situation?

That confirms were not signing anyone id say and also the timing is brilliant. Squad is short of players bad run of games then throw this out to throw the blanket over the fans eyes.

Contracts mean nothing in a lot of ways. I wouldnt be surprised even if he did sign it he went in the summer. Payet, Suarez Ferdinand seen it all before.

We wouldn't be able to sign anyone who is already as good as Coutinho and I don't think we are in desperate need of new signings. Despite the timing of it I think this could be very good news.

I said months ago when things start going bad they will announce contract sigings/discussions with one of our current players. I said it would be Can if I remember correctly. The next step if things keep going bad is the annual appearance at Anfield from the owners for a match to announce a new sponsor of the Liverpool Franchise.

They do [oops] like this to keep fans from questioning why things havent been going well and why it looks why we are doing nothing to try fix it. Most fans only look at the now with things like this not the bigger picture. They have been pulling this stunt since they came to the club.

Keep him?
In your dreams.
They want him to sign obviously, to get his future potential value increased in readiness for the knock on the door when Barca come waving 'the wad' if his form continues to sparkle.

See Luis Suarez for further details.

I call it "the old chestnut" and FSG have a wood full of trees growing them!
Throw in the Stevie Gerrard back into the fold as Youth Team Coach and you've got the tired old horse with shiny new blinkers!

Gerrard is new Liverpool manager if all things go to crap. Thats why he was brought in as a coach. Dont get me wrong im delighted hes back. In a lot of ways its disgusting to see some people not even criticize them for bleeding the club for its name rather than actually having an interest in the franchise formerly known as a club.

It would really rattle their cages if couthino said "no not interested". They wouldnt have any more cards to play. I know couthino will more than likely go in the future, its just the thought of someone like Tadic been bought to replace him makes me worry. I used him because we usually run to southampton for players.

They should just go ahead and rename us "Status Quo FC"

BUT don't ever mention that bands' song "Whatever You Want"!

The other day you wanted one of our players to pick up an injury and now you want one of our players to refuse to sign a contract.

I can see you are a student of the game

PS Mane, Lallana and Clyne came from Southampton.

Where did I say i want one of our players to refuse signing a contract? I said it would rattle them. I dont know if english is your first language or your just stupid but thats another thing youve accused me of saying when i didnt.

Ricky Lambert and Lovren also came from Southampton. Remember that. Theres more than southampton out there that we can sign players from which was the point i was trying to make. But your too caught up in trying to accuse me of saying stuff I didnt say. I think you should read the posts before you reply and start running your mouth off saying I said things and twisting words to suit your own needs, because your only making yourself look stupid.
