Kalidou Koulibaly

Speed doesn’t last forever but with Koulibaly it doesn’t need to. Everything else he offers is top class, he could have Otamendi’s pace and still be levels above all of our defenders.

Ake is an improvement to our defense as well. Laporte and Ake is already better than any of our CB pairings.
I'll have to take your comments about KK in good faith. What impressed me most about KK vs Liverpool was his physicality and ability to control the quick and agile Salah.

If Ake is capable of playing right sided centre-back then the concern about signing a 2nd right sided centre-back are over done.
 
Unless Ake can play there? What about Walker as a right centre-back, with Laporte and Ake as a 3 man central defence. Cancelo and Mendy as attacking wing-backs?
Walker is not intelligent enough as a footballer to play CB, a shame because he has all the physical attributes.

I think it's possible Ake may be able to play there, as he is a very sharp player.

But we really need the option of a big presence there. And we don't yet know what we will get from Laporte.
