alreadyexists Posted January 5, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5, 2022 Coutinho!!?? What the actual? I think I’d never stop jizzing. We wait for years for our first Brazilian and then we get a third! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny. You joke, but every time we play Wolves, go and visit the match thread. Most on here are shitting themselves at the prospect of playing Adama. I'd much rather have him in my team than play against him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoelVilla Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I would like to see Coutinho in a Villa shirt. Not my money and it does show some intent from the owners for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Bertrand has elements to his game that surpass Adama's, but Adama is far more dangerous. 2 league assists in 55 Premier League games. Has a 1.2 expected assists this season In what way is he dangerous? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Fantastic signing if it indeed happens, even if he's not brilliant, as it shows the intent and ambition of our owners, so it's about more than just the signing itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's miles better than Traore, Trezeguet and El Ghazi and at £20m, it's a steal. Yeah, he's definitely miles better than 3 players who all either out performed him or performed equally despite missing half a season through injury.

villalad21 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Coutinho hasn't been playing well for a good few years. High profile signing sure that's exciting but I have my doubts over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam-AVFC Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 12 minutes ago, Delphinho123 said: Adama Traore being touted around at £20m... Seems cheap and would certainly add a lot of pace and strength to the team. I know he's a marmite character but I'd be all over him at that price. We've already got a graveyard of wingers unsuited to the way we're playing with little evidence the system will be tweaked to accommodate them short term!

TRO Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 3 minutes ago, danceoftheshamen said: He's a wild card all right but for me he makes things happen...He's unplayable sometimes. Made the difference for them at Old Trafford at the weekend and caused us loads of issues when they beat us. I realize his flaws of course having said that. For me....its going down the same old route of inconsistency. has brilliant moments, and moments, and moments, moments. why are Wolves selling him, when they are paradoxically the only club, to get anything of real value out of him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Just now, Tomaszk said: Coutinho feels a very odd signing. Agreed, but a 6 month loan? He's a far better player than Traore, Trezeguet and El Ghazi and won't cost us a transfer fee (Wages, yeh yeh). If we were signing him for 30m, I'd be concerned, but a 6 month loan would be a great deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick76 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 1 minute ago, Tomaszk said: Coutinho feels a very odd signing. Gerrard knows him so and our creative players are either injured, AFCON or out of form so not that odd I suppose. Odd in terms of his form the last few seasons and his salary but hey ho, if real, then a little excitement around the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd be unbelievably positioned to finish top half and even push for Europa league. Providing chemistry went half decently. I know its not going to happen but one can dream right? I would prefer some defenders myself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
