The Coutinho factor

[ozzjim]

We've been waiting for this type of signing. This could be that threshold. Players are going to look at Villa and see Gerrard, Coutinho, the profile rising. Back this up with another top player in the middle of the park, we might just be on the way.

Does that make them officially our feeder club?

Yes but I think more disappointing is the fact that Barcelona have not taken any players from us over the last ...well ever. I thought Bacuna would have fitted well in their all conquering team of few seasons ago.
