N'Golo Kante

[birchwoodgingerste]

we really should be making a huge push on kante! amazing player and huge upgrade on fernando

We don't need Kante or any alike DM. We need Kroos or someone like him to carry the building up from the backline. And with Pep we might even see Fernandinho or Yaya ending up as a CB.

Yaya at centre back ... Spits cofee everywhere ... You mad?

Not my idea. More Peps'. Martinez at Bayern? Nuff said.

I thought I recalled MP using Fernandinho at CB at least once and he did well?

Kante would be far cheaper than kroos

I tell you what, the battle for Kante's signing will be a tough one.
Right now, he is the best versatile defensive midfielder in Europe. All the top clubs will be willing to get him while he still hasn't reached his peak yet.
If we pull this one, we have our midfield spine anchor set up for at the very least five years, priceless.

You don't know that. But what I do know is that we need Kroos much more than we do need Kante. I don't understand how people can't see that, especially the ones who claim to understand the Pep way of playing football.

Of course in a vacuum you'd choose Kroos over Kante 95/100 times. With an aging slow midfield we're in need of youth and pace. Finding a midfielder of Kantes quality at 20m and also preventing him from joining our rivals is a very rare opportunity.

Kante release clause is like 20 million

Kroos I bet would cost 40-50 million at least. Get your point about pep kind of guy though

Kante could well be a one season wonder like Vardy will turn out to be. And Leicester probably as well. I hope our management isn't drawn into the Leicesterhype.

20 mil release clause.
