Kalidou Koulibaly

Fern is good in a pinch... but he is not a natural CB. We will not move any further in CL unless we get a new CB to accompany Laporte who will need a good month to get back up to speed once he's back.



Cup bound this season??
 
Yep, I sure hope this guy or Skriniar will join in January. Stones or Ferna as CBs will simply not do in these kind of CL-games. We’ve seen historically how it is possible to sign big names in the winter transfer, with Laporte and Van Dijk.

Pep has been firm on his stance about not buying anyone this transfer window. But I’m sure he tricked the media in the past?
Agreed but someone will have to leave....who would you let go in January?
 
If he moves it won't be this January. Pep seems certain we won't buy defenders in Jan.
 
I think pep will hang fire for now to see how Garcia continues too perform, he's played great the last couple of games, if he carries on the way he's going, and with Laporte due back next month they could forge a good partnership

while i rate garcis very highly what we dont have at all is a physically dominant centre half....not even Laporte is like a Kompany, VVD etc as good as he is. This is what someone like Koulinby offers as well as the footballing ability (unlike Mangala for instnace who ahd the physical presence but no ability with the ball at his feet)

Also think if we want to try ship either otta or stones in summer well see both playing games to try get them in the shop window for summer to try get back some money. I can see otta leaving but I could see stones been happy as 3rd/4th choice. Unless it comes down to his contract expiring soon so will try move him on.
 
The odds on us signing him has been slashed significantly. Maybe someone knows something?
