I'm of two minds with PC. His performances have dropped off, he'll be on big wages and his presence will thwart Buendia.
On the other hand, it'd be a statement of intent. If we want to attract Champions League level players, we have to start by signing them to contracts, and Coutinho is the obvious initial signing.
We've spent decades now as a middling mid table club, at best. We have to break out of that old mindset. These owners are backing us. Let's **** go for it.
I guess I think we should sign him.
