hahaha yeah, football is so mercenary now I tend not to get to caught up in the loyalty side of it now, unless they are home grown, there is very little loyalty or connection with the club.

When you look at VvD, we have had a part in his behaviour, so it's not like we are clean either, so for me lets just do what's best for the club, that's going to be playing Coutinho as he is one of our best players.

Yeah you're right but it leaves a nasty taste in the mouth.

would be interesting to see what the new contract says about player refusing to play . does he still get his full wages. if not Im more than happy him not kicking the ball at all.

The problem we we haven't planned for his departure , albeit this has been moved forward because of neymar leaving, that's not our problem and the extra money isn't worth it , so what we get less for coutinho next year ,
If money is supposedly not the issue then coutinho must wait until we sort out a replacement ,

Partly our fault we haven't already done this,
Partly Barcelona's fault for losing neymar

I'm kindve baffled that coutinho isn't offended by Barcelona's desperation for him now, considering their were so-so 6monthes ago , such desperation is based on appeasing their fans as apposed to a genuine admiration for coutinho (considering their quotes 6minthes ago)

If Barcelona are blackmailing him by saying it's now or never , if I was coutinho is be further disenchanted by Barcelona. sad turn of events considering his comments , can't blame his contract, contracts these days is all about power in transfer negotiations , nothing else , although players should consider the binding nature of them, maybe a release clause is necessary in EPL ???

Regardless of making extra money from Barcelona's desperate offers , let's stand by klopp, and give FSG credit for standing by klopp ffs,

I dislike FSG heaps but standing by klopp is a good sign. Can't believe fans now saying FSGS should override klopp and sell laughable

And to all the so'ton fans who think this is hypocritical , LFC aren't holding VvD to ransom by saying now or never, infact klopp is dong the opposite unwilling to compromise , and also VvD was always our top target , we didn't sell a player for £200m then suddenly be interested in VvD, and we are open to selling coutinho to Barcelona , only it was planned for next season , not now, the neymar deal has pushed things forward, compared to so'ton who basically never want to sell to LFC,

if the coutinho money equals signing VvD then id be singing a different tune, but if money isn't the issue ( and shouldn't be considering our supposed 200m warchest) then coutinho money will equate for nothing this season , and will deflate squad sealing our fate outside top4 ,

And then the extra money we made selling coutinho equates to nothing as we'd miss out on extra TV money based on finishing lower. And please it's 3games without coutinho and already we're thinking we can survive without him ,typical flimsy inflated expectations based on game by game, he's our top scorer last season, very important player, replacable??? Yes but until he's replaced he's irreplaceable .

Now no more double standards , credit where it's due FSG do good by standing by klopp,

It's interesting to see how quiet the PFA are on all these players refusing to play, saying they don't want to be included in CL squads etc, there always spouting on when players are deemed to be getting a raw deal.

thats actually a brilliant quote nobody has even contested what these so called pros are doing its been a disgrace and thats including vvd there gettin away with murder.
