With regard to Coutinho and Barca, I think it will most likely be a case of Klopp telling him one more year. Wait, see what we can achieve and then go next season if you still want to. Whatever happens I think going now would be a risk for Coutinho with the World Cup next summer. He is a definite starter at Liverpool and has established himself with Brazil on the back of this but if Neymar stays and Iniesta is fit, in my opinion he may struggle to nail down a place every week for Barca. Their midfield needs the likes of a Rakitic and a Busquets in it to balance the attacking play of the others, so he would need to dislodge one of the front 3 or Iniesta, which as brilliant as Couts is, would be very difficult. This then could cost him a starting place for Brazil which I would think is a bigger thing for most Brazilian players than club loyalty. He should stay put, have a huge season with Liverpool (hopefully winning a major title), potentially win a World Cup with Brazil and get his move to Barcelona after that as the replacement for Iniesta. But it's football so anything can happen.

If you think Barcelona are going to pay upwards of £80m for a bench warmer you're kidding yourself.

From a neutral perspective there is little reason for him to stay, the only thing we have going for us is loyalty.

Hopefully Klopp is telling the truth when he says he's not for sale and hopefully Couts has enough loyalty to the club to accept that.

Putney, why is the only thing going for us being loyalty and/ or is there little motivation for him to stay exactly? He is the main man in our team and the whole system is built around him. He's one of the most creative players in the PL. His manager, fans and team mates love him and we are on the up and up as a club under Klopp. Do't really care what Barcelona thinks of him or if they are willing to pay for a benchwarmer. Not bothered at all. What matters is that we want to keep him at least for one more season and mind you, m it's not like Barcelona will be pulling up any trees next season as that team is now stale with players over the hill. Why would he wanna go there with a new manager who's been an also-ran his whole career with aging stars? That should be the question.

B Scouse, he will earn more money with Barca, he will have a better chance of winning trophies, he will play in front of larger crowds, he will have a larger profile with the associated benefit of having his international career enhanced, he will play with three of the four best players on earth, he will get to live in Barcelona as opposed to the NW of England, it is likely the Barcelona fans will love him just as much as we do.

At Liverpool he may make his legend but he may be part of a team that achieves nothing. It would be very brave of him to choose us over Barcelona. That's why I think loyalty is our only card.

Stoke and Villa. Before it would be 6 from 6 no doubts but with recent history I think it is a good return. Toure only gave Benteke a sniff the whole game and his attitude and the way he seems to organise around him makes him look, regardless of what might come in, the best signing we'll make this summer. Agree we do need a little bit more quality but will not argue with how fsg and transfer committee are trying to recruit. How bad would it have been if it was us who stumped up the extra 3m cash and got gazumped by chelsea for Willian. Believe that adding to the group will lead to better things than one big name. sturridge, couthinho and toure already show that. other signings will come good too. Just my opinion, squad is being built to change the team to handle different games.

Good display. Delighted Saurez was cheered on to the pitch. A show of class by our supporters there today. Granted it was probably more out of respect for Stevie G than support of Saurez but top class and shows him what loyalty to our club is about.
Also delighted for Allen. Top player getting to show his true self now he is injury free.
