2017 Football Summer Transfer Thread - Page 138 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

FSG and Liverpool release statement about Philippe Coutinho’s future:

“The club’s definitive stance is that no offers for Philippe will be considered and he will remain a member of Liverpool Football Club when the summer window closes.”

It was necessary to make such a statement earlier and not drug it out!

Transfer requests make no actual difference right?

Not really, I guess it's whether things turn ugly.

We should chain him to the gates of Melwood if we have to. Gives us one more year you little ****.

I don't know about that, this one has lead to ploppers being trolled more aggressively than at any time since Gerrard slipped and cost them the title.

Seems we're all over a deal but a huge sell on clause holding things up.

Not sure it's moved a lot. Read he wants to go to Celtic. Celtic want him. Nice rumors esentially came to an end so now they're still weighing options. Think they want to loan him to a more competitive league for developmental reasons but all signs still point to sending him back to Celtic

Hadn't realised Asensio has a £72m buy out clause. Thought there'd be a few sniffing around that.

It was 80m euro, but he renewed his contract a few months ago and the release clause is now 350m.

The Catalan media are trying to make Liverpool fans turn on Coutinho to make his situation here untenable.

Your job, as RAWK posters, is to not give in to such pressures.

I think anyone who does so should be banned. If not permanently at least until the end of the transfer window.

love it when they start getting like this!
