Do yourselves a favour, it'll be Kounde or Ake.  De Ligt is clearly off to Bayern IMO - seems much stronger rumours re. them now

 

Raphinha, not sure what will happen there, if he is that desperate to join Barca, he will probably wait for them to activate the 2nd lever.

Skriniar? I mean his move to PSG is not yet confirmed...and they seem to be off Inters valuation.

I would absolutely love to have Skriniar here.

On Gvardiol? He signed a contract extension, but next summer his realest clause is around 50m as the rumor has it.

If BAyern really are willing to go as high as 75m+add ons, which is way out of their lowball comfort zone, they will go all the way in matching our offers. so no chance here. Odds on them are dramatically slahed to 8/11 while we are trailing at 3/1. Still an outside chance if we maybe offer 100m but that would be plain stupid. Shame but we only have ourselves to blame. Tons of good CBS switched clubs last season. This is where we should have acted FFS. Konate or Varane would have fitted us nicely and not cost a bomb. Now we will be feeding of scraps.

Honestly, go for N'dicka. Only 22, left footed on the same level as ake but in contrast has huge upside. Also would be dirt cheap as his contract runs out next year. Absolute no brainer but Todd probably never heard of him.

Varane hasn't been above average for at least three seasons now. He is a player still living off the hype he got as a young player.

And you think next summer Chelsea would be the only team in the world to approach him?

True, even though there is a good chance TT would have resurrected him, not the best example. Yet you know there is quite a list of decent CBs that switched clubs in the last few windows while we were twiddling thumbs waiting for AC and Toni to run their contracts down.

If he is any good, i am sure there will be much competition. 

[DDA 9,758]

De Ligt seems to be yet another player who is comfortable playing in a pub league than testing himself in the most competitive league in the World. 

The Prem isn't for everyone lads.

De Ligt to Bayern

Koundé apparently close to Barca

Skriniar in discussions with PSG

Juve want Koulibaly to replace De Ligt when he goes

That’ll be every top class CB we’ve been linked with gone. Then what? Wtf are we doing?

If the players don't want to come here, then what more can we do.

[bigbluewillie 1,883]

Al this talk of MDL and whoever else.

It makes me wonder if we should have done more to keep Rudi...one of the best CB's in the world and still been cheaper.

[BMox81 193]

No-one can be annoyed at the club if we put in the exact same bid as Bayern and he chooses them. It is what it is.
