Ed002, are you saying that Liverpool should have come out and said that coutinho has informed us he no longer wishes to play for our club then? I get that you are annoyed with the way Liverpool and klopp have conducted themselves this window, but I don't agree with you saying Liverpool and klopp are wrong for trying to resolve the coutinho issue behind close doors. Don't air your dirty linen and all that, they know he wants out but they also know he may stay (should the offer not be sufficient to them) so they should not be seen to be the ones that have severed all ties surely?

{Ed002's Note - that is the exact opposite of what I said. I and Liverpool think that this should be addressed behind closed doors.}

ok, as above I too hope this is something resolved within and behind closed doors. That said a closed door always appears to have a phone or loose lip against it these days Ed 😉.

Really hailstones, get rid? And then hope we have a few aces up our sleeve? Hope? This window and the club have been a total shambles, and they're not going to do in 6 days what we hadn't been able to do in 2 months, so only for that reason he can honour his legally binding contract he was happy to sign 6 months ago,

Spot on, Port red. Get rid? And then what? No replacement or a panioc buy? And then what? We haven't been able to get the players we want in and suddenly, RBL will sell Keita and Saints will sell VVD cos Cou left. If that is what you think then wake up, my friend. We are not selling Cou cos a) we need him, b) we cannot replace him with 5 days left in the TW and c) we have to show that we are not a selling club and no player can just trample on us cos "it's his dream move" nonsense. That is some BS right there, esp. cos he signed a new deal just months ago. If he wanted to leave, he should have rejected it BUT he did not and now he wants to shaft us at this point of the TW? No way! He stays and that is that.

{Ed002's Note - It is simply a transfer - nothing more, nothing less. Nobody cares what Liverpool do - other clubs just get on with their business. Nobody in the game would use terms like "selling club".}
