"Same reason Sturridge didnt play at Chelsea?? Sometimes for whatever reasons some clubs dont suit the player. It doesnt make them bad players just because they are not playing regularly for them"
"Coutinho looks good and is young so I wouldn't complain too much if he came to Liverpool but to be honest I would prefer one more experienced striker. If we can afford 10 million then I'd spend that money on a prolific goal getter rather than another talented midfielder. "
"Its starting to bug fans were told that the club are confident we would get our business in this window done quick. Yes sturridge was done quick granted but its like BR is asking for the players he wants but whoever is dealing with talking with other clubs is not doing to much of a great job. BR needs these players in so stop dragging your heals and get at least 1-2 players in to help him. "
"BR if you will not sing him a major part of our fans will take spiritual injury.
how many times we have to let southempton to beat us in this transfer window..."
"What is really the true story behind this??? Just read on Tribalfootball Southampton bid accepted for Coutinho! Is this another Dempsey scenario? Just go for Torres bound to mess that up too anyway.
"
"Southampton have beaten us to him shame looked like a promising player. We bid 8mil they bid £10mil, When will LFC learn if you want someone pay the price and stop making us look so cheap as we originally bidded £5mil, but some how we have £15mil for Allen."
"We need to sign him up quick. And stop haggleing over a couple of mil. He reminds me of oscar, kaka. He ll be worth 3-4 times what we pay in a couple of seasons. YNWA"
"only1Cloggs
He scored 5 goals in 16 apps while on loan at Espanyol. Not bad for a winger so young. How many goals has Sterling scored? I thin he will be a fantastic buy. SORT THIS OUT Ian!"
"We supporters are crazy, Last year we bought over priced players. Now we are carefull about the money we spent on particular players. So don't moan, rodgers knows what he is doing. We need to stop paying too much for a player."
"BoxingRed, I agree and well said. PC will have the same impact as DS because BR knows the type players that will get his style of football going. Have faith in the manager and YNWA! "
"there u have it, we up the bid to 9.5 when the quote is 10m & u wonder why he wil get snapped up by totnham??? Iiiii ih eish we are poor and our negotiators absolutely are not serious gerting the young talent they preach so much."
"even though Southampton bid has been accepted by Inter, I believe that the last word will fall on the player, Coutinho himself, his will has been immediately clear, he wants to stay in Inter Milan, if he can't, he will come to LFC! mates, don't bother for the slipping down news!"

"he worked with southamptons new manager at espanyol so if they want him at southampton then any offer the reds make will be dead in the water considering the 2.2 million difference in the two offers "
"Coutinho is young can play midfield and number 10 as second striker remember a manager can make a player good or bad so it is possible Inter manager does not fancy him so what, think of Sturridge he now scores goals so managers are human beings born to be differend."
"Funny reading the first few comments now that he's signed.. I knew Sneidjer wasn't coming, but this kid was different. Young, talented with sell on value= FSG type signature. Hope he settles in quickly and all the paperwork goes through ok, cos it's not a done deal quite yet..."
