Kalidou Koulibaly

[blueparrot]

We shouldn't even be going near a 29 year old with injury problems IMO, should we?

Dont know , what are his injury problems ?

Get him and we're a left back away from a solid back 4.

Get someone in front of him and Laporte to shield them and that's our defence sorted.

Fernandinho !!!!

None. He's playing a guessing game or talking out of his ass. Koulibaly is never injured. Pretty much his only injuries throughout his whole career is a pulled hamstring this season and a smaller foot injury back in 2012

Fernandinho !!!!

Legs are gone and given his age he can probably only do a longer stretch of games at CB. Which is why he plays there

Quick check (Just read a post earlier on in the thread lazy I know should get a job for the Beeb) his injuries have been short lived. But he's still 29 and a chance for the sort of money we are talking about not worth taking.

I think Txiki must know he can do something with Otamendi and Stones or this wouldn't be on the cards. Also, Jorginho not joining was hardly Napolis fault he personally pulled the plug and moved to Chelsea. We spent all summer posturing of course to do the deal but can't blame Napoli for wanting as much as they can out of it, it was then agreed and Jorginho pulled it.

Mendes will sort out Otamendi and Cancelo with new clubs. The fees might not be stellar for us, but with Mendes a deal will be found somewhere.

With this guy in charge, Stones might become useful again - in unorthodox way

I remain unconvinced but will give him a 2nd season, as most of Peps signings tend to need it.

Rodri, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Foden and maybe Bernardo. Those are our options, think we need someone with a bit more steel in there to be honest.

I would bring a 'defensive' minded midfielder in regardless.

I’ve always thought that the club should’ve brought in Thomas Partey instead of Rodri but you can only wish and hope for Rodri to do well and realise his potential.

We should still buy that fella

Would still be a better option than Rodri in front of the back 4. As mobile and much better at reading the game and breaking up play.
