He is a very good player, but their defence didn't need to get better.

They need some forwards and for Mourinho to completely change the way he's played football every single year since getting fired from Madrid.

Somehow I don't think both of those will happen, and even then we'll still be better.

Disagree. Their defence did need strengthening. Only Bailly who is decent and the jury is out him too. They have looked somewhat solid due to them playing so defensively and deep. They will be a little more expansive (only a bit) next season and that will expose their defence much more.

They aren't going to be more expansivene.

That's obvious to anyone that has watched Mourinho since 2012. He will not open up.
 
As a Swede, I have seen him quite a lot and find him very promising as he was one of the most important players that won the U21 Euros 2015 and he is now part of the post Zlatan / Hamrén (manager) era that has started extremely well and beat France a couple of nights ago. He is good and a very promising talent, very similar to Stones but takes less risks imo. Wouldn't say that he's as technically gifted as Stones and his long range passes are not as good either.

Wouldn't worry too much about this transfer, will have quite a hard time cementing a place in the first 11 imo, at least if Smalling and Bailly plays at their best and as someone else wrote, defending hasn't really been Scum's biggest problem.

With that said, this thread should probably be in the general football forum, scum thread.
