No, I said where are all the tin foil hatters now, saying that Lovrens new contract means he'll be sold in the summer, like they did with Coutinho, then you decided to butt in and tried to make it into something else.
And I came in to say those are two very different situations, because one is a player that I assume to be in high demand, while the other isn't.
I don't personally think we've extended Coutinho's contract only to sell him for more money in the summer, but I can understand why some would think that way.
I think of Luis Suarez, Gareth Bale, Edinson Cavani - three names off the top of my head who signed big, long-term contracts only to be sold for massive money shortly afterwards.
Hardly sh*t stirring to think this could again be the case here, in my opinion, though I don't necessarily buy into it.
Lovren, on the other hand, is a player that no club that can actually afford to pay £100k a week to a defender will probably be interested. So on the basis of that, I think those are very different situations - hence to me it's painfully, ridiculously obvious why no one has come here to say we've extended Lovren's contract to sell him in the summer.
