Yep, he's very professional and I think genuinely appreciates that we saved him from Inter and have given him the platform to perform.
Players do hold the cards, but we can hold out for the price we want, like Southampton & RB are doing with us.
Very true, I'd demand the £198million PSG paid for Neymar for him. They'll never pay it and he's irreplaceable for us. I'd be tempted to go for money + some players, problem is if we get cash all our targets double in price, like we'd be doing to Barca, so players like Rakitic/Turan.... if we still need a CB ..... Vermaelen (is he fit now???) ..... or go for it and demand £100million + Suarez

The big risk here is our owners. I don't trust them when they see all the money they could get for Coutinho.
Wouldn't surprise me if we don't sign any more players this window but sell Coutinho for £ 100 m.

At least he hasn't got a buyout clause, so it's in our control. Players hold all the cards these days, although I can't see him refusing to play and trying to force a move.

They'll never pay it and he's irreplaceable for us. That is exactly what we should be doing. actually, we should demand £200. But we won't as we want to see what they will offer. Liepzig a small club in germany showed us how it is done this summer

I think we're pretty tough when it comes to selling our players. We were with Suarez and more so Stirling holding out for what we wanted. I don't see why we will be any different now? And RBL may be a 'small club' but they're minted which is why they didn't cave in. They don't need the money but do need the player.

Does it really matter how much we get for Phil?
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

I meant the money.What's so important about the amount we get for him.
