Kalidou Koulibaly

[xPetrCechx 13,546]

#Torino have rejected ADL's €25m offer for Maksimovic, which is understandable. Toro already lost Glik to Monaco. Losing both would hurt.

Okay. Sign Maksimovic, give him to Napoli with a nice bow on his head then sign Koulibaly. Sorted.

Also who is this guy? reliable?

Twiddling our thumbs... You guys make me laugh. 

May 26th we had pretty much all but signed Rudiger, that met with mixed reviews from the peanut gallery... He ruptures his ACL, the deal is off.

Now we've submitted somewhere in the neighbourhood of 3-4 bids for the defender who many deem to be even better than Rudiger and we're twiddling our thumbs... Right.

The window hasn't shut yet fellas like most things in life it takes time.

Like virgins on prom night... Don't mug yourselves before you get to the big dance.

Look here we been crap since last season. 

We are more infuriated with the slow response from the board. 

You knew we have problems then you should be working on it from last season. 

The targets should have been here long ago to start pre season and get acclimated to the team. 

Leaving it to this late is just incompetent. 

Now if they don't plan buying then good. Just don't expect anything great if you don't fix the problem.

We're gonna be fucked.

So not only are Napoli super stubborn with their own players, they're also stubborn with trying to buy. They just got a fortune for Higuain and are trying to lowball for their CB target.

The Di Laurentiis guy is an absolute cunt.

Seems the Italian clubs share a similar trait - they demand the moon and the stars for their players but when they go out and buy they expect a cheap deal.

They can't compete on the field, so they try to act big in the market. Just like Everton

I have no updates on Koulibaly and Maksimovic

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Koulibaly is obviously Conte's #1 target. You guys slag off the board for the Baba Rahman signing yet are so eager to settle for 2nd best with average players like Mustafi who are no different from Gary Cahill.

Conte was KK & the board are trying their best to back him but it's proving difficult because De Laurentiis is a massive cunt as a few posters have already stated.

 However, the club have already had months to address the defender issue and after the Rüdiger deal fell through with the ACL injury it's like almost as if the club just gave up on signing a CB and only nearing the end of pre-season remembered that the team's defense is quite frankly full of shit.

They took 6 weeks off after Kante deal. Obviously.

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

Chelsea forced Napoli to look for replacement and that's good. People are citing Manchester clubs as an EXEMPLARY HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE, lol, none of theirs deal in value for money terms is even close to Kante territory, only in sight is Mkhitaryan but just because he had one year left.

I can criticise club for lack of trying but can't criticize for being reasonable. I'm sorry.

And for guys liking numbers, we're still third in terms of money spent right ? So stfu.

I think if they won't budge, though it's currently 50-50, we'll just sign that Lindelof kid from Benfica with fixed price at 30m€.

And what do you render reasonable? We got lucky with Kante because he didn't sign any contract extension prior to winning the PL with Leicester which is why it was so easy to get him, but you're quite mistaken if you think that's not a one-off. 

Can you also say that the £40m that's being rumoured regarding Koulibaly is really more of a bargain than the £7m more City paid for Stones? Most on here don't even know who this kid is, let alone know how he's going to adapt to the league. 

The reason United & City have received so much credit is because they've done their business early. It's not about how much they paid or who got the best deals, because the long-term ambitions are as clear as day. They're reinforcing in spite of what the market prices are because at the end of the day you need to spend such sums now to have a title winning squad. That's what City and United currently possess, a squad that's got a mix of world-class and very good players. 

The only world class player we've got right now is Hazard and it would be far too flattering to call the rest 'very good players.'

Have you ever seen Stones play and then seen Koulibaly play? If you did, you wouldn't be making this post. 

Also, I wouldn't be calling a 25 year old a 'kid'

ADL is not a cunt. Napoli have player that Conte want badly so they are in position to demand as much as they want - if u want to pay that - pay, if  u don't want to pay go for another options, simple as that. They are not richest club in the world, they don't have the richest president like Chelsea, Man City, Psg, etc etc, selling players for big money is a only option for them.

[zekinjo 449]

Just can't understand why we're not linked with Kalidou and others top players all the time like every serious club when wants to bring new players. Looks like Abramovich and the Board doesn't know what/how to do. Chelsea looking lost. How in the world we brought Kante? Still don't get it.
