What the **** is with RAWK? They don't allow ANY discussion of Coutinho going to Barca, as if burying your head in the sand will somehow make it go away.

When there is no news and people just keep repeating the same shit with the same fights happening time and again they ban the topic from discussion. It's not the first time and won't be the last.

There is some merit to locking a discussion until a reliable source says that a transfer is even remotely likely to happen. FSG have stated they are not even willing to open negotiations and Coutinho has said he is happy at LFC. All other rumors are ridiculous (quite a few had Coutinho to Barca a done deal and him being unveiled at the Barca - Chapacoense friendly ) which was not even close to happening.

Agreed, the problem I have with RAWK (and a lot of other non-Liverpool football forums) is that any healthy discussion over anything mildly controversial is pretty much impossible.

Who cares about the price, Klavan is 3rd choice CB right now
Right now not me but FSG clearly do. We simply cannot go into the season without adequately replacing Sakho and have him on the books while sitting on the sidelines. Sign another CB if VVD can't be bought at a reasonable price.

If we can get VVD and Ox it'd be a very good window

If Chelsea and City lay off VVD then we'll get him
Not fussed over Ox. What position is he filling that we are buying him for? I know he can play anywhere in midfield or wide forward but our midfield is packed anyways. He's nowhere near a starter. Henderson, Cout and one of Can/Wij will start. Lallana way in front of Ox when he returns. So at best he's 5th choice. Milner will get more time in midfield.

I'd also rather give minutes to Grujic and Woodburn to bring them along rather than Ox.

He could perhaps be a backup in that front three. But Mane/Firm/Salah is first choice then we have Ings, Solanke, Origi, Sturridge all vying for places and even Kent is up and about for a spot in that front three.

I just dont think Ox is needed. If we are to buy in midfield, it has to be a first XI type signing, like Keita would have been.

VVD is a must though. We are waaaay too light at CB.

My heart sinks when I see a headline on the BBC transfers page, then when I see the source I feel better.

If this talk of Coutinho was a month ago, I would be concerned but as jod23 said, there is no chance that we would even entertain it with 4 days to the season starts and European football at our doorstep.

Also, think about this for a second. These top level Barcelona people who have supposedly flown into/arrived in Liverpool are pretty well known and would be photographed in a second upon arrival and <insert shitty rag here> would have it plastered all over the internet but alas, nought.

Unless we are bringing in Keita, Coutinho will not be sold. Going into the PL and CL without Coutinho we are doomed to fail. Klopp knows this and unless he can replace him it ain't happening.
I call BS on all the click bait and rumours.

I'm starting to feel like Cou will be gone unfortunately Barcelona is too attractive to 99% of players to shut down..however, if this is the case I'm hoping we hijack Everton's deal and bring in Sig.
