I've always found him to be an incredibly overrated player. Barca should have gone for Eriksen over him originally, he fits their style so much better.

Agree with both points, I do think Coutinho is overrated but I do think he'd do well with us especially with Winks/Ndombele behind him.

I think he's a really good player but not this world class #10 that he is made out to be. The long shots propped him up in everyones mind and he's not near the passer that Eriksen is.

Like Eriksen, he’s essentially a 1 in two goals/assist output in this league. What he doesn’t have is the metronome aspect or Eriksen’s game, but that’s pretty unique to Eriksen as a number ten. He’s a slightly less capable passer but that’s caveated my him being a more adventurous passer, and he sees less of the ball. Better dribbler though and more of an entertainer.

He’d be a sideways replacement, which is fine, Eriksen is top class.

A different style of player,less metronomic but more magic int he final third to take it past a player or put a little clever trick in. However he does retain the ball well unlike someone like Ali, so an upgrade on that. Winks and Domble will be the metronomes

Overrated and far too inconsistent. Would be massively underwhelmed with him - he is a proper 'highlights reel' player a bit like Pogba - looks fabulous in spurts but overall not all that.

I'd be absolutely gutted if he ended up at Arsenal, no matter who we sign that'd be a huge coup for them.

They might only be loans but Ceballos and Coutinho will help to improve their team significantly.

It's amazing that when they drop the old Wenger ways and grease the wheels of those agents to move things a long they do transfers quicker.
