What sucks about this entire Koulibaly saga is that he'll be made out to be this Christ like savior for the club, because of how long this has dragged on + figures being associated with his transfer. 

Just hope he can hit the ground running, not only for his sake but for the club's as well. 

That's not what I was suggesting when we talked, but having a marquee signing fail for a new manager would be rough, esp. at with the transfer saga and price. 

On the other hand, if we get K2, we should all support Antonio and Kalidou while remembering that we're 1. not in CL and 2. in a crazy transfer market these days.

Circumstances are just not nearly what they have been in European football with all the money being spent. Need to accept the new norm while aiming for lofty goals.

All of this is still no excuse for Chelsea's board/directors.

So what's the deal? Did he signed a new contract?

KOULIBALY BOOST FOR CHELSEA?

Kalidou Koulibaly has been the subject of several bids from Chelseathis summer but Napoli are reluctant sellers.

Sky Sports News HQ were told at the start of the month that a sale would only be considered if Napoli could find a replacement.

Well it seems they have, with Torino centre-back Nikola Maksimovic linked with a move to Naples.

Now it remains to be whether Chelsea will renew their interested in Koulibaly, who has played both Serie A games for Napoli this season.

People have doubts about this but wow, his passing yesterday was excellent. So many good forward balls.

You wonder why it's KK or bust ? Because he's got everything, he's big, strong, fast, agile, technical. I hope Chelsea know what they're doing leaving it to the end of the transfer window and dropping out of Maksimovic race. They have to do David Luiz from 2011 on this one again just with the difference 50m€+ is then 25m€.

Koulibaly is set on a move to Chelsea, but #Napoli have so far kncoked back Chelsea's advances and slapped a £60m price-tag (Standard) #CFC

You know I would be very happy with Maksimovic or Manolas or whoever it is we're linked to but I would be absolutely over the moon if we signed Koulibaly. This guy has pace, agility, strength, short and long passing, ability to carry the ball forward and is a great defender.

What makes Koulibaly a clear level or two above the other names we're linked to for me is that not only he is the complete package, but also he is superior to others in every aspect that develops the overall quality of a CB. 

There is something about us not doing anything about Napoli taking Maksimovic right in front of our eyes that still gives me hope that we might be able to pull this one off.

It's off mate.

[zekinjo 449]

Most likely off. Chelsea wasn't connected with him for a long time or very long time seriously and today's 29-th. Bunch of mediocre connected in last weeks, probably one of them coming..

Still expect a D Day bid for him After Maskimovic has signed for Napoli

It means he's not coming and Napoli will have both players. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/21492/nizaar-kinsella/2016/08/29/26984882/chelseas-end-koulibaly-chase-as-napoli-close-on-maksimovic

So Napoli are going to fuck us in both holes at once. Nice.

If we were willing to offer such a huge amount for Romagnoli, why not just use that money to lure Maksimovic?
