I just listened to the Transfer Window Podcast with Duncan Castles and another football fella, and they say our offer for Koulibaly is 60m euros and 3m in add-ons, which is quite reasonable for a 29-year old. An agreement looks close.

No. Do you honestly belive we have improved areas where we were exposed multiple times last season? ferran torres absolutely brilliant player for Valencia last season will explode here. Ake amazing for Bournemouth was brilliant against the Rags front 3. We were exposed multiple times on the left last season and theres no sign of improvement in that area? i wasnt stating all that to be negative. i think our attack has improved with Torres and Ake improves Cb which is brilliant. but when teams target the LB as a weakness in our team and we are not addressing it thats a very big negative.Jesus, jump off the cliff right now

Despite being an ass, Duncan city related transfer info is pretty good
So we've had packed suitcases, koulibaly ready, transfer imminent and now getting closer.
Does this mean that us and Napoli have googled eachother and realised we're in different countries?
Talk about dragging somert out.

If we do get Koulibaly I think we will be better at covering our weaknesses in general.
Same Koulibaly is really good at stopping counter attacks. Stopped liverpools front three when his LB at Napoli just wanted to attack all game. Also stopped Ronaldo in the cup final.If we do get Koulibaly I think we will be better at covering our weaknesses in general.

For anyone grumbling this summer about the lack of signings... we’d all do well to remember 2004 when we had to settle for 4 free transfers... two of whom were Ben Thatcher and Danny Bloody Mills.

Enjoyed watching Thatcher in our team, thought he was decent. Less said about the other one the better.
