If klopp wants him out now then you have to ask why?
Is he so offended that coutinho doesn't want to play for him or Liverpool? Is he really that stubborn to sell him in January for that reason?
Seems unlikely because we could have easily sold him in the summer but we didn't. Klopp could easily have put him in the reserves until now but he hasn't. Klopp didn't have to make him captain either.
So does klopp think the last few days and coutinhos behaviour will have a negative effect on other players? Is it best getting rid?
Again, I doubt it because we've been doing pretty well this season and photos are released from training every week and they all look to be having a great time, including couts, despite his team mates knowing he doesn't want to be here.
We have gotten results without coutinho in our team in the past but let's be honest, we are a far weaker team and a far weaker squad without him.
It makes zero sense to sell him now. Coutinho knows the league, he knows klopps methods, tactics and what he wants from his players, he knows our players too and their strengths and weaknesses.
We can't risk bringing somebody in who has no PL experience and will take time to gel under his new manager and with his new teammates.
We just don't have the time.
And who the hell is available, affordable and is eligible to play in all competitions for us to come in as an immediate replacement?!?
I'll be f**king fuming if we sell coutinho this month.
