He was already making difference there while we loaned him in Espanyol. Too bad he could never deliver his brilliance in Italian league as well as he did in La Liga and Premierleague.

It was the wrong timing while he was here. Young, inexperienced, unproven, whatever you say. Though he would have never become the player he is now if he remained an Inter player. I wish him best of luck on his new adventure as a Barca player. Besides of improvement on his game, he also gained lots of muscles and strength.

Steroids, there is no other fucking way, he looked fragile like a bird here, i know most people are not aware,
but literally every single professional player in top leagues is on some kind of PED. FIFA/UEFA doesn't do shit to stop it because it generates more money, people want to watch freaks of nature, it's not like UFC where people might die.

they must've given him some good shit in liverpool because he sucked donkey balls here.

Sucked donkey balls here?

Dude didn't even get a chance here. We rather played horseshit like Kharja above him :palm:

This is all on the shit management we got.

Doesn't it just make you wonder about a lot of our other players who we kept here too long? Wonder what Ranocchia's career would have been like for example had he gone to Juventus instead of Inter.

It's called being 25 years old and not 19. I don't doubt a lot of players are taking more than whey protein, but it's not like kid is built like Shaqiri now.

When big money is involved there is doping m8, this is just a fact now. you'll only find strict testing policy in sports where people can die like the UFC.
so you have the sport that generates more money than any other sport, with the most weak testing policy, with players getting phenomenal salaries and you think that they're just on whey to keep getting paid ? very naive. some players don't even have to give a pee sample in their entire career :lol:

i bet my kidneys they gave the kid some good shit in Liverpool, that's how professional sports work, now they are laughing their way to the bank.

I felt it was a sure mistake when we sold him - and was annoyed when we did - just not this great a mistake. The blow is soften though by getting some cash out of this, that's nice :D

Well as i was one of those people who wanted to cry at his leaving... i hate doing i told you so, but i did told you so! I knew he would end up being big and we would bang our heads in the wall because we can't recognise/develope a potential big talent. Inter's managament deserves this outcome!

Maybe he can find even better shit at Barca now? Dont forget Barca openly gave Messi HGH and got away with it.

Yes Big teams can pay for the most advanced PEDs.
I expect that he will get better there.

I don't see Coutinho as Iniesta replacement. He's not good enough. I can see him as part of the new MSC
His best performances in Liverpool have been when he is played as part of the midfield three, I think. From there he can drive with the ball from deep, play through passes, and combine with the forwards to get into goalscoring positions.
Barcelona are not going to waste money on Dembele by not integrating him into the front three, while Messi and Suarez are sure starters.

They do various shit in 3rd tier leagues in crap countries, so I wouldn't be surprised.

These stuff don't make you a better player though, just stronger. I feel he'd still be struggling in Serie A. He always had this problem and always performed much better in Europe, so it was obvious that his career was better off abroad.

Coutinho will be a success at Barcelona, no doubt about that. Even freaking Busquets is (highly) rated by some just because he plays for Barcelona. The question is, would he be a big success for a team like Sevilla, Betis or Deportivo?

Is going to say about bad business on Liverpool's part? Why the hell they sell their prized player in January where they no chance of replacing him in the window? They can't rely on Salah all the time so Liverpool are now weaken. Couldn't they wait until the summer?

Coutinho had the talent all along, it is a shame that people similar to Mino work in our management. I am still pissed off that we sold him.

Coutinho is a big success for Liverpool, who is far from City, United or Chelsea in terms of quality and money (even tho Pool spends a lot too, but more in the vein of Inter of last 4 years).

Busquets is not only hailed for his Barcelona games, he was also very important for Spain's success. Since we are the ckub that had to endure Melo and Medel in the heart of our midfield, you have to blind to not see how important Busquets is both in passing terms and disposessing the opponents.

I think that both clubs have made a good business even though we all know that Coutinho value is not 160 million euro, never in his life, and the guy has to prove a lot at european stages, now the market is going in this way thanks to sheiks.

As for us:
I wish that Coutinho will be the last of our long list of regrets since the '90s.

He's already missed a couple games because of this, CL qualification and the fa cup derby game. Likely they were sick of Barca jerking them around in the media

He was a good player for Tottenham over the years, at Inter he didn't even get a chance after Lippi was sacked.
