Philippe Coutinho

[Gingawaria]

For ****s sake why does this always happen? Last time we qualified for the CL - Suarez left. Now it's Coutinho looking like he's off.

We'd best spend the Coutinho money on someone better than ****ing Mario Balotelli and Rickie Lambert is all I have to say!

Transfer request rejected

I don't believe he's handed in a request. Those multiple journalists are all quoting from the same story. Reddy and the other one appear to be the only journos checking the veracity of the story. Sounds like some-one in his family let an unguarded word go - yeh he's told them he wants to leave - been interpreted as an official request. I don't think anything has changed tbh.

Joyce, Pearce and Reddy have all confirmed in the last half hour that he has officially handed in a transfer request.

Request rejected

We were supposed to be buying him without selling Coutinho.

Yes, but that's not the case anymore. We need to sign Can up for a new deal and get Keita and VVD on board ASAP.

[The_weatherman]

He officially requested a transfer at 1pm.

Rejected at what 13:02?

Andy Carroll, Charlie Adam and Stuart Downing?

The last 24 hours feel very stage managed.

Of course. They've been waiting for this money all summer. That's why we've only signed one first team player.

Here we go...

I ain't biting on that.

[The_weatherman]

If he wants to go, I say sell him. Don't want him if he's putting in a transfer request. Managed or not, sell him ASAP.

Who did he email Weird way of doing it.

:shrugs: It's what they do. I don't know why anyone is surprised.

Agreed, if he wants out tell Barca exactly what we want and ****ing move on from this shambles of a situation.

Write email. Save as draft. Do training. Get out of Melwood. Click send. Watch fume.
