Well, if Ozil is not ever coming back, we badly need a #10. Even if Ozil does resurrect himself for one more year, there is no way he will be staying longer, so maybe a couple of years of Coutinho would be ok. Not a fan of year long loans though, but if we do one then better to be an older experienced player than just being used to develop players for the likes of Real Madrid.
