Kalidou Koulibaly

[OliMCFC]

Of the senior first teamers at the club I'd sell the lot par Laporte, Garcia and Walker. Maybe Cancelo stays too.

CB has been a shambles. Don't care about the price or wages, fuck me if he asks for a stand renamed after him and a statue of solid gold to sign I'd do it right now. 70-90m is cheap for the man. Get him in. Laporte Koulibaly Garcia Dinho and maybe Tosin. Then next year see where we are with the young lads. Just get the deal signed and Koulibaly holding the shirt. Can't be arsed pissing about with some young lad and I'm someone who wanted Upamecano or Dias or Bastoni or whoever. Get Koulibaly.

I remember a Stan Collymore article from last season where he said City should offer Pool 150m + Stones and Otamendi. I'd give anything to have him in blue alongside Laporte. Cannot be arsed with more shambles at CB, just get rid of those two plonkers and get someone truly world class in.

cant disagree with that

our defence is a shambles and its why we have had problems - last season Vinnie came back for the last dozen or so games and really helped us out -plus teams were sitting off us more - now they have learnt that if you get at us our defense is weak

 

[cjn]

If Ben Chilwell is £70 mill and Maguire is £80 Mill I don't think £40 is a bad price for Stones at wheat 25?

£40m is fantasy land stuff for Stones given what the market is likely to look like this summer. Can’t stay on the pitch, downward trajectory both professionally and personally since the 100 point season, and going to need a new contract that’s at least somewhat comparable to City wages. Who’s going to spend a big chunk of their limited budget on this player? He’s gonna be back next year.

I couldn't care if we take in 4 or 40 for either Stones or Otamendi. Just get rid.

I don’t necessarily disagree but I would keep Mendy around. He’s got a point to prove and despite his mistakes I think he deserves one last crack at it. Would be too big an upheval to replace all that lot in one summer. Koulibaly now and a left back to compete with Mendy.

Then next summer address right back and striker (praying for Haaland).

Nah Mendy can go. He's never going to be the player we signed and can't defend. Gundo barking at him last night for the goal and he stood there like a prat, was playing well until then too. Thanks Ben for all the fun but he's not it anymore.

They can fuck off re Zin.

When Mendy gets injured 3 seconds into the opening game of next season we're fucked if Zin isn't here.

no we have to buy to New leftbacks
Zin and mendy not good enough for us

hope we get to New centerbacks too
Bastoni for the left side ( cover for laporte )
Koulibaly right side

 

[Stoned Rose]

I said he wasn't LIKELY to consider them. If he actually does neither one of us knows, and as long as they are at the table anything can happen depending how the situation develops. I don't think Robinho was likely to consider us for long on the 28th of August 2008 either.

Cut the condescending crap(and yes, you started it)

Ok dad.

I don't think we can realistically get that much business done. At best we will get one left-back, one centre-half and one forward replacement for Sane. Even that will be a struggle with player sales. If I was in dreamland I'd pick Koulibaly, Sancho and Alaba (as part of the Leroy deal) but we have to be realistic. I mean, how much money can the departures of Zinchenko, Silva, Bravo, Stones, Otamendi, Sane and Cancelo generate?

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

If true that there is a possibility of Alaba in the Sane deal, he’d be absolutely perfect for what we need - Mendy & Laporte both rotated with Alaba (I know he doesn’t want to play LB, but he’s definitely an option there), allowing us to sell Zin to someone who’ll play him in his best position.

That would leave just CB & AM/second striker to fill - and would leave us the budget to go big on both. Koulibaly & Havertz would be the dream - however unlikely.

We’d be good to go then, IMO
