Kalidou Koulibaly

I don't believe any of these sources but if we can't add a good quality to the team before the window closes then we are in for another long long season..

He wasn't the right manager for us because we're not going to consistently spend big on players anymore. If that's what he needs to even get us a respectable top 10 league finish.

Grade B players like Kevin De Bruyne or a certain Lukaku that we've been rumoured to splash out cash on to get back? Courtois? Filipe Luis, who is one of the best in his position but Mourinho didn't fancy him because he wasn't Ivanovic? Now we severely lack a quality left footed fullback.  

No matter what way you put it, going from champions to hovering 1 point above the relegation zone after half a season because we didn't get Pogba and Stones is completely unacceptable. 

Its more than 'unacceptable' its a fucking disgrace.

Not sure what your point is, you seem to be trying to put me in a ''Mourinho cant do no wrong camp'' for some reason which I don't think anybody is since the end of 2014-15. Anyway this should be in the Mourinho thread

We signed this Kooldaddy fella yet ?

Still scenes when we hijack Arsenal's deal for Mustafi..

[bababoom 4,478]

Seriously don't know why Mustafi is rated highly here, he's a decent player coming of a poor season with Valencia, don't get the fuss.

He's bang average imo. He always needs an aggressive defender with him to perform. We are in need of a proactive and aggressive center back and that's obvious in the names we've been linked to: Koulibaly, Manolas, etc are all aggressive defenders who also like to arry the ball out from the back.

Kisskissnapoli(?) seems like a shit source tbh, but if they're right about Napoli not wanting to sell we should move on to to an alternative like Maksimovic himself.

Because there is no other defender.

Sounds funny but it is true.

Can't believe this guy signed from Genk in 2014 for 7 million and only has 6 caps, I REPEAT, 6 CAPS, for Senegal. How is this guy now valued at nearly £60 million? It is an absolute joke. Just give Tomori a chance at CB instead, fed up with having to pay over the odds for players.

because he's the best defender in serie a by some accounts. and a once in a generation player, you are not likely to find another 6'5 guy who can run at speed and also produce quality with the ball

Another Pappy and Hector buys coming, brace yourself! 

[It's too big 625]

I dunno why but this has pissed me off. Hope he has an average season and Napoli reject not taking the money.

Hector is already on loan

[nyikolajevics 2,573]

Napoli wants to keep him with 2 millions per season? Metzelder(METZELDER!!!) earned 4 million at Real like 10 years ago,,

[It's too big 625]

That's a lot of money to be fair. 

[Jype 6,398]

€2 million a year net salary, before taxes that's almost 100K a week and I doubt he'd get much more than that at Chelsea either. Most new signings at Chelsea get around £80K a week at first and more if they extend couple years in.

Either way the wage is not the issue here, it's Napoli's unwilligness to sell. With the pay raise they have convinced Koulibaly to stay another year without making a fuss and most likely promised to let him go next year if he wants and a good enough offer comes in.

Oh well, time to move on it seems. Cheeky bid for Jose Fonte as a stopgap till next summer?
