From most fans of many clubs, don’t think I know any football fan whoever they support that don’t think he is world class and want their club to sign him.

he reminds me of mangala not in the sense he’s shit but you know on mangalas debut where he bullied drogba all night has we all thought he was gonna be class. That’s what I see, think he’s suited to Italian game as well , a lot slower then premier league , more time on the ball. He dives in a lot and loves a slide tackle more then otemendi. This is the one signing I don’t want us to make. Much rather have the fella from Sevilla

Well he is a good defender no doubts about that. His physical presence is what we may need in CL matches. Hence the calm presence of Laporte will clearly work in his favor. It is still to be seen how good he may be paired with Ake or Garcia or Stones. But that i will leave to our scouting department.

who would you get then?
 
Just watching KK. Just before half time and he hasn't looked particularly stand out tonight, however I do recall him being fantastic against the Scousers in the Chumps League. He is a powerful physical presence and tbf looks far more composed with the ball than Mangala. Is he worth the vast sums being speculated..............By the way playing in Laporte's left sided position
 
Well Sassuolo are playing a very good game with almost three goals chalked out on thin margins of offside. Another player touted to be more than a 100 million worth according to Napoli is Fabian Ruiz. He has been average at best.
ADL may overplay his hand with some of these transfers and may end up with nothing. Somewhat a Spurs/Levy situation.
 
Apparently Koulibaly has been absolute dog shit tonight. He’ll be at home in our defence then, more convinced than ever before that we’ll sign him.

Glad I'm not the only one.. I literally thought the exact same in regards to him being reminiscent to Mangala.

Koulibaly has played against Liverpool 4 times in the past 2 years, Barcelona, PSG twice, City twice a couple of seasons ago.

And he's shown he's more than good enough. Against Premier League attacks, against the fastest teams in the world.

Comparing him to Mangala and saying he only suits the Italian game is pretty absurd. Following it up with saying you want Diego Carlos instead - a guy who has played 1 good season at a big club after 4 at a mid-table side in France is bizarre.

People who are forming opinions on him based on these post-lockdown games when his head could well and truly be in Manchester already are making a mistake lol. Van Dijk's form went to shit in his final months at Southampton, Sane was poor in the final months of last season when he was negotiating with Bayern, etc. Now is probably the worst possible time to judge him.
