I think people forget that footballers are employees and have a very short career span. For south americans in particular Barcelona and real are the pinnacle. Couts has been a great player for us but the club will move on. A replacement will be found but won't be surprised if it is an astronomical fee.
Thanks couts see you in the champs league at some point (it is almost inevitable)

I am old enough to remember Roger Hunt leaving, and Keegan going and obviously Suarez going, and yes careers are short, but this just sticks in the throat a little bit, I don't know why, but I can't wish him well, I hope he comes unstuck, don't ask why I feel like this because I don't know, perhaps I am just feeling let down by the guy. so, so disappointed he has gone, it feels a bit like one step forward two steps back, or trying to fight everyone with one arm tied behind your back. When we are on the cusp of possibly being a force again our best player sticks two fingers up to us. Loyalty has died its death.

Daggers, like you eluded to, players have come and gone at Liverpool, just as at any other football club. The current project at Liverpool is one that needs to be built, is progressing, but is some way off yet, Coutinho obviously feels at this moment in his career, Barcelona represents his opportunity to be playing at the highest level in world football. I don’t resent him for that, perhaps circumstances could have been handled better, perhaps he should have gone in the summer, but we all make choices in life that we feel will improve the lot of ourselves and our families. Remember some of the moments of magic he has left us with, welcome him back to some special night at Anfield when at some point in the future we play Barcelona in the CL, and look forward to seeing some exciting player taking his place in the squad and become a future star of Liverpool.
