Indeed Rep.
It's a bit baffling to hear football fans saying they'd go for another player as he'd be cheaper or better value.
We don't pay for these players so I just judge it on who I feel is best.
Think this is one thing that us fans always cry out for and yet when it comes down to it, we never live up to it. To me, it is far better spending an extra £2-3m if a player is of better quality than another. Whether or not Coutinho really is that much better than Ince, I don't know.
I think it'll be both or neither.
If I had to choose I'd go for Coutinho purely because I just feel Ince (his Dad) could cause problems making demands about starting every game.
It is something that doesn't really bother me. Paul may have had an influence on Thomas leaving us originally. If I am honest, that was probably the best thing for him. He got regular football and has made a name for himself, something which may not have happened at Anfield. That said, I don't see Paul being able to have that same level of say on Thomas' career now. Thomas is at an age where he is working independently and not under instruction of how Dad. At least...you would hope that was the case.
