I don't think he was that fantastic this season...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Interesting point, the consensus seems to be that an opening offer of £23m is literally laughable, but I'm not quite sure what people think he should be going for.

He might be a £30m player, maybe a £40m one, £45m at a stretch, but £23m as an initial bid - which presumably can go higher - isn't that fantastical.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sterling went for nearly 50 mil

U can tell.u know cout is 3 times better than wee raheem. I would expect a fee in that region to sell him

----------------------------------------------------------------------
so £150m then? or maybe accept £145m for a quick sale.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry that was really badly worded on my behalf. I was trying to say we should get 50 mil for couts as a minimum

I think he still has a lot of improving to do before he's at the level that some think he is/will be at. There's no doubt he has bags of potential, but IMO he is inconsistent. He may of got club POTY, but he didn't exactly have massive competition, he was just the best of a pretty ordinary bunch.

To be fair Goofy I don't think your post was anywhere near as badly worded as my s.h.!.t joke.

Four year left..
Much better than Sterling who we sold for £50m.

I would even answer any other call from PSG. If this is true then they're stupid morons.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

£23m is a perfectly reasonable opening offer.

Coutinho's stats aren't very impressive, he only recently got into the Brazil squad, he hasn't won any titles, not well known outside of the UK.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not well known outside of the UK?

Apart from Barcelona being continually linked with him for the past 24 months and Luis Suarez waxing lyrical about him to the media; in particular after his move to Barcelona, and now PSG bidding for him, yes, he's not well known in Europe.

I'm sure none of the other clubs or scouts in Europe have ever heard of him or seen him play with such a limited exposure of having a club like Barcelona talk about him for two years.

Good one. Keep up the bum tricks son.

International tournament hatrick for him last night, albeit against poor opponents.

He's unknown to the rest of the world though

You only got that fee for sterling because of the inflation for english players, y'know, just like how you lot paid 30m for Carroll. 23m is a respectable opening offer. He doesn't exactly set the world alight does he

He will leave on the club owners terms and not otherwise. If they think he is worth 70m then PSG has to pay that. He still has four years and we are in no rush to sell so we hold all the aces.

He is not about stats but he brings players in to play and can create space with beating his man and he has very good link up play. His problem is when he has strikers in front of him like Balo and Benteke who are not running behind the defence.

He is better than Oscar and how much did he cost???

Brazilian players are over rated as well. Oscar is average.
