Jules Koundé

[Ancoats blue]

Several different variations on Koude's height Wikipedia says he's 1.8m (5ft 11in), Transfermarkt says 1.84m, (6foot), (Maybe the second is to the top of his afro?)
Whatever his height his heading stat duels are actually better than Ake, Koulibaly and Laporte. Koulibaly only won one heading duel out of six in his last match.
Personally I like what I have read about the lad, he did very well against Wolves in the final and I am looking forward to seeing how he does against Bayern on Thursday.

I watched him three times ... against Wolves, United, and Inter Milan ... and he played well , the whole Sevilla team played well ..... even Jesus Navas , our old boy!

The height on Sevilla website is incorrect and from his time at Bordeaux, he is accurately at 1.84m per transfrmarkt. Just about 6", not 5'11 and definitely not 5'8" (1.78m).

This is Kounde standing next to 1.88m Nemanja Gudelj. Now I don't care what his actual height is, but he's not exactly looking dwarfed by him, is he?

This is also a guy who had no problem dealing with Lukaku or Raul Jimenez, or Martial and Rashford, or Diego Costa last season.

I'm getting more and more convinced skyblues is just a wum.

He's been talking about his height since last Thursday and been slapped down several times, but then brings it up like it's a new discovery to him a few days later to reel a few more people in.

Been pretty obvious he’s a wum for a lot longer than that.

may be we value him at 1.8m
and saville value him at 1.84m

so if we can compromise 2cm then the deal should get done.

I've had him on ignore for a while, I'm surprised it's taken people this long to figure him out.

Copped on now after this. Only in England are there big strong players so that’s why smaller CBs like Cannavaro were good

When your decision rests on the height of a player, football is not your priority.

You forgot the best one - Otamendi against Norwich.

Thanks for reminding me . I thought that was the year before. The more I remember the worse it gets. That fella that scored for Southampton from the half way line probably hasn't scored since.

This transfer dosent make sense to me id love it if we get him, but i thought we were looking for a CB whos experienced and a leader. Kounde is an amazing talent, Madrid want him as there Ramos replacement. but hes not very experienced. its compleatly the opposite of what we were looking for in our target.
