Kalidou Koulibaly

I think we all agree that we need a TOP class CB.....the key for me is if we win our case with CAS and overturn the ban, then such a deal is on. If we do not overturn the ban then it is going to be very difficult to persuade someone like Koulibaly to come to the Etihad.
No we don't.

Some of us would rather give Stones, Adaradiayo and most of all Garcia a real chance. Buying a top class centre back would see Garcia leave in my opinion and I rate him highly enough to think that option is inconceivable. In two years we'll hugely regret letting Garcia leave, much like we do with Sancho. I do think we need a second left footed centre back however to cover Laporte, so even if he's missing we have a balanced pair to allow us to play out from the back quicker. It would also give us the added benefit of being able to play three at the back with Laporte in the middle.
 
Our first choice CB is sealed for Laporte.

2nd choice CB can be filled with Fernandinho ( who was one of the best this season) , Garcia ( The next CB star ) , Tosin , Walker , Stones ( the 50m investment ) or the general Otamendi.

Even Rodri can play there.

1- This season we were unlucky with Laporte injury
2- Garcia & Tosin hasn't failed yet !
3- Walker wasn't tried there.


I remember Pep converting Kolarov to CB, and he did really well there.
Fernandinho done well also, so why not try Walker ? he might succeed.

Yes.
2. That's confidence inspiring for a 25 point gap.
3. Dear lord...

Kolarov - no he didn't.
Fern - no he didn't, hence we're 25 points behind and our midfield has collapsed without him in there to boot.



We need a proper centre back pairing and a proper defensive midfielder, otherwise we'll have another season like this miles behind Liverpool.
 
Koulibaly us one of the best defenders in the world, what are people smoking here.

Partnered with Laporte that would fix alot of our defensive issues. Who cares about resale value, we need a star right now.

Exactly, clearly many have never seen him play. He’s a beast.
 
Who is Liverpool 2nd CB ? Matip or Gomez .

They won the CL & going to win the league with them.
They dont need 2 WC cbs, they play 3 DMS. Ffs if we played fabinho henderson wijnaldum infront of stones & mangala we would concede less than them. We just dont have the forwards for smash it in the corner football. Plus I enjoy watching the skill and craft of the Silvas, Kdb, foden, etc.
