Word is that Roma want Zouma on loan with an option to buy. make it an OBLIGATION to buy and deal massive win for us as it also gets him away from EPL teams who could be REALLY improved by him Edited July 10, 2021 by Vesper OneMoSalah and Fernando 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,331 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Bought for 14.6m Sold for 30m. Plus 2 loans 7.9m and 7.8m. Profit over 30m. Was on low wages and gave us some good games, nice guy, thanks and good luck! Strike, bigbluewillie and Syltherin 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Don’t fully agree with this move, still think he has plenty to offer here although its clear he isn’t first choice. Plus we lose another aerial threat in the squad. Lets hope Kounde is as good as everyone makes out….second coming of Maldini reading some of the comments here. Edited August 27, 2021 by OneMoSalah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conte, Sarri and Tuchel have all came to the same conclusion with him. He has his strengths but I feel he's been massively overrated by the fanbase over the years. robsblubot, Fernando and Strike 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True enough regarding his strengths and then weaknesses such as on the ball and reading the play at times but I do think for a 4th choice CB, he is not exactly the worst option either. I mean the boy Kounde looks talented but who’s place is he taking? Azpis? Rudigers? Silvas? Even then we have Christensen and Chalobah also. I don’t think he’s necessarily coming straight into the starting 11, which is why I find it odd we are moving someone out who is perhaps more likely to be content as a 4th choice and buying a 50m+ CB when we still haven’t addressed midfield yet.

Azpi's legs are gone, same with Silva. Replacing both with a younger CB is smart business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH1988 1,348 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Absolute beast and a Chelsea lad, always enjoyed seeing him on the social media accounts, as well as his performances of course. Simply not the style of CB we need going forward, but he is a solid player for another team with a commanding vocal partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it would have changed much. His technical deficiencies are down to his talent not his injury. He would have played more during his time here but he never would have been the right player for the current system. He just was born too late. In the Good old 2000s he would have been one of the best old fashioned cbs. Monster in the air strong tackler always fighting. A guy to rival  Vidic or JT. Ball playing cbs are all the rage nowadays at top clubs so players like him have to ply their trade elsewhere. He still is a premier league and champions league winner so he will have no regrets Johnnyeye, Vesper and robsblubot 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
