Reports form Brazil/ Coutinho's entourage are saying hell play after he returns from the international games.

The whole saga has left a bad taste in my mouth and I'm sure it has with Klopp too. I'd be half inclined not to release him for international duty citing that A) hes injured or B) he isn't match fit and don't want to risk injury.

We could...to show him who's boss but we've already done that with rejecting Barca's bids and ultimatums.

It's tough one!

I say let him play on international duty then have him back

If you take into account the Sakho situation, you know Klopp will not make it easy for him.

The club shouldn't rock the boat any further.

He might do a Tevez and refuse to play...no?

Not if he wants to be playing in the world cup next summer.

The problem for Liverpool is that coutinho is very well regarded by Tite and he is not in danger to lose his spot. Coutinho might as well go on rest or "injury" mode from january onwards.Dont tell me players dont do this cause they do specially players very important for their national team. Even juve great Platini did it.He is also Brazil's second top scorer behind Neymar and their chief playmaker.

He could be asked by Tite to take it easy and not burn himself to the ground before the world cup especially as its likely liverpool wont be winning any thing. Brazil were humiliated in the last one and they want to have a great showing as they again have superstars in Neymar(was encoraged by Tite to go to PSG to play with Brazillian teamates),Coutinho and jesus.

It would be of interest to Liverpool to sell him for a high bid and attack the transfer market for Draxler/Dimaria/Lucas etc. Maybe try and get another defender too.

No hope Cout downs tools and doesn't give his all shopuld he stay, he will want to win every game he plays that's in him as a pro footballer

Klopp news conference at 7pm today. Wonder if Coutinho is still out with a back injury for tomorrow. Been quite a few weeks now since the beginning of August.

why so much interest by chelsea fans on this coutinho story. like a dog with a bone they just wont drop it.
are they all brazil fans?

I hope this is true. We are a different team without him and a brilliant team with him. By far our best player.....

Goofy, my own take on the whole of the Couts' saga is that of him being caught in the middle, either relying or being coerced into making the written transfer request. He is, to all intents and purposes a simple young man who wants to play football.

I still think that there s an element of him going to FSG and asking for their help in stalling the transfer in such a way that he couldn't be blamed for the failure of the deal. He just wants to play football. And FSG helpfully dug him out of a hole.

I cannot believe this alleged fall out between Jurgen and him, that appears total bolix, put out probably at Barca's behest.

The nice thing about Barca of late is the Neymar has now gone live slagging their management off.


Nice. I wonder how many of them will get the bullet from Barca.
