Gerrard is ...or was the manager. They aren't going to laserquest together. From all the stories around Gerrard and Carragher I don't think any of them had football mates. Because when Coutinho arrived, Gerrard said they were. Edited October 29, 2022 by WallisFrizz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozvillafan Posted October 29, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2022 Danks has been around this team long enough to know Coutinho should NEVER play away from home. Watching him turn the ball over every time, then jog back like he's just run a marathon despite playing for no more than 10 minutes got my back up. Don't even put him on the bench for away games - it's just a waste of a spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwi1890 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Don’t know what he was trying to attempt today with those one touch passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 New 4 year deal for me. We don't want him coming out of contract at that prime age of 33/34. He'll be snapped up on a pre-contract sharpish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinebro Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Unbelievable that we have given him a 4 year contract. We are the worst run club in England 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROTTERDAM1982 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 He come on when we was 4 nil today, and yet hes the one we are slaughtering? Did you see anything good that Ings, Watkins or Buendia did today?.......thats £100m of transfers and about £300k per week 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These boys have been there and done it and played at a high level, much higher than PC. They should be leading my example. Scapegoating an inexperienced pup in Coutinho is just shameful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa_Vids Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Hopefully Emery can relight a fire in him, if only in the short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 He looked like a little boy lost when he came on. Clean slate starting next week but if Emery can’t get anything from him, then he needs to go in January or next summer. His name alone will probably guarantee him a move somewhere I would have thought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Hopefully we can offload him to the MLS or Qatar, at his peak he was nothing more than decent and he's miles off that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.Bear Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) Some of the comments in here are ridiculous. Yes he's bang is out of form and yes he's been very poor this season but he isnt sulking, storming down the tunnel, being petulant or anything else. He's trying his best. Do you think he wants to be out of form? He wont be going to the World Cup. Mentally, he's probably devastated with morale on the floor for both those reasons. But we've been total dogshit this season and creative players are always the ones who suffer the most in rubbish teams. Emery is here and hopefully he will get the best out of him. He's only 30 and 30 these days is like 25 used to be. He isnt washed up, he showed glimpses of his talent last season. Rather than saying "ship him off to the China", we should be praying that he comes good because he can literally dominate a game when he's on it. The raging negativity about him and his contract isnt helping anything. We were celebrating when he signed a permanent deal so people need to stop pretending that it was a bad move. If he comes good, you will all about turn and start salivating over him. Edited October 29, 2022 by R.Bear 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
