Chelsea ‘should be signing Coutinho’ says Glen Johnson
Chelsea need to forget about making a move to sign Philippe Coutinho this summer, because the Blues would be better off fixing their problems in other positions instead. That's the opinion of former Chelsea player Craig Burley.

However, Burley believes Chelsea would be better off spending their money elsewhere.
Speaking on ESPN FC, he explained that he feels the Blues' squad is lacking both in defence and attack.
He urged Chelsea to make a move for a striker and a centre-back instead of Coutinho, as he feels Mason Mount has already proved himself in the position the Barca ace would play in.
Burley also claimed the club already have enough reinforcements in the wide positions, so don't need to sign Coutinho.
