Jules Koundé

[ScottSinclair]

Really hope he wasn't the one that got away.

Fwiw I think Dias will be very good for us

I expect Liverpool and United will both target Kounde? He seems one of the best young talents around. I hope he doesn't join one of our PL rivals.
I agree Dias looks good.

There were rumours that he preferred to stay in Spain and become Ramos' successor at Real Madrid. Whether that's instigated more by Real's PR team is another question.

No chance can that be justified. Eventually youre in the position 2 of ake laporte dias and kounde arent playing.
£100m plus in cbs sat on the bench every week.
(Yes Stones was £50m but we cant keep shelling money on the defence)

Kounde is gone, we chose/ended up with Dias and im bloody thrilled at it so far.

LB is the only defender in need of acquiring.

I read a quote from Kounde that said he was disappointed that a deal with us could not be concluded. Perhaps all is not gone bt the point of rotating world-class defenders is absolutely valid.

IMO there is still hope because Kounde can be moulded into DM.

Why buy a CB for £70m and convert him into a DM?

The season is long, there will be a new DM to chase next summer

Kid is pure class and can play on both positions.
He would be top class cover for Dias and replacement for Fernandinho.

What a goal against Barcelona!

 

[Delphinho]

Let’s hope Liverpool won’t sign him. Would be a huge upgrade on Gomez and Matip

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Does he no longer play CB for Sevilla?

He does, which makes that goal an insanity for a CB lol

Oh right, I had seen this tweet which made it sound like he was playing full back.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Reminds me of Glen Johnson

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

What a goal against Barcelona!

Funny how Rakitic is knocking Barca out the Copa Del Rey, and Suarez is top scorer with Atletico in first. Take Garcia, it won't help shit.

That bad?

 

[aguero93:20]

This one I want

 

[Metalartin]

Am I the only one that thinks it was half as much, in the words of Alan Hansen: "Shhhockun defenden" as it was a good bit of dribbling and pace?



Maybe I need to see a better angle and give more credit since this is a cb but I did see 3 totally mistimed challenges and a bit of fortune with how it panned out. Especially when he nearly ran into his own player.
