Couts is very good, but actually not that essential for the system we play, he adds an important extra attack option but its one of many, you guys need to chill out a bit with the depression that its all doom and gloom if we sell.
Add to that:
- he was on STRIKE at the start of the season
- looks like he is now on strike now again, and
- HE DOESN'T WANT TO F***ing PLAY FOR US ANYMORE!!!!!!
Call me old fashioned but fuckit, no matter how much I like him, don't want players around who don't want to play for us.
There's other reasons I'd do the deal in Jan - but that's the main one.
Sick of this F***ing sh*t, disrespecting the club, and everyone associated with it.
We stood our ground in the summer cause Barca were dicking around on the deal.
Looks like Barca are now going to stump up - and it should be a LOT.
Get it done.
Jürgen is slowly building a strong side. If Phil goes, Jürgen has OK'ed it. And I trust him to invest the cash wisely.
