I agree I think the breakdown of the entire transfer is needed, but even so what we have is 130 million for 75 games and deeming it as "a lot of matches" is....strange to me and not even close to justifying his amount. And saying it was dumb to put a price on goals is also strange since what does he do besides that? I actually agree that midfielders should be creating chances and whatnot, but it's been discussed in depth that he's not a prototypical #10, he plays more as a SS and free kick specialist than anything else. He's a goalscoring midfield much more than an Ozil, Xavi, Modric, or de Bruyne. It seems to me that Barca watched like one game that Coutinho played where he was superb, then they closed off all their other targets, and put all their resources on that one match thinking they were getting the next gem-Kaka-2.0-from-Brasi-player with Phil.
