Yep. He's gone, he's history...and a footnote at that.
Who'd have thought that we'd have said Phillipe Coutinho is now completely irrelevant to Liverpool Football Club. There are some players like Suarez and Alonso where you can look back and think "damn!" if only we had kept them. With Coutinho though, wow, who'd have thought we would have gotten so much better without him. He leaves and we go on and have 2 Champions League finals and get 97 points in the league. Just highlights how much we relied on him and how he was actually holding us back IMO.
Even if he wanted to come back, I don't hink us fans have anything to be even remotely concerned about or even need to give it a thought because I don't think there is a chance in hell Klopp would even want him back with the amount of disrespect Coutinho showed towards him and the club. Klopp said Coutinho could have had a statue with us but would just be an ordinary player anywhere else, but to be fair, Klopp was maybe a little bit wrong there...he's not even ordinary at Barca, he's almost as irrelevant there as he is here. Will go down in history though, biggest ever transfer failure.
