Pizy 18,903 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 7 minutes ago, Magic Lamps said: 40m€ is too much for a 31 y.o. Big no for me esp given his injury record. That ship sailed 5 years ago Same age as Van Dijk who is still showing no signs of dropping off in the league now that he’s over his big injury. Isn’t €40m only like £32m? That’s not bad at all for a world class CB in this day and age. Think it would be pretty smart of the club to make one of the CB’s we buy a more experienced guy.

I agree, we need a more experienced guy to play alongside our young guns when Thiago inevitably drops off. VDV is still going strong but he knows the league inside out. Koulibaly is showing signs of slow decline and would have to adapt to the league with a ton of mileage in his legs. Also he only has 1 year left on his contract, surely we could negotiate a better fee... Obviously I would still prefer him over Ake and Kounde. My priorities of the guys on the market would be MDL (obv not realistic)>Skriniar>Bremer>Koulibaly>N'dicka>Kimpembe>>>>>>>>Kounde>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,381 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 If there was any truth to De Ligt only wants Bayern, much like Raphinha, we would've pulled our bid. This will be the summer window that showed Barca and Bayern's true disguising colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. And go for Gvardiol next summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to have some grudging respect for Barca cos they were so good under pep and our most important international rival. Now they are just pathetic Bauern you either love or hate with a passion as german so why would we pull our offer? We might still continue bidding to drive up the price they have to pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mário César 1,252 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 so will be ake + kounde/de ligt/koulibaly assuming that tuchel can improve ake to the similiar nevel that christensen showed in the last part of 20/21 season and if koulibaly or kounde reach the level of prime rudiger I think that the quality of the center back will be the same not a clear downgrade but not a clear upgrade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the strangest thing are people all of a sudden rating Christensen as if he was some baller before Tuchel. Think its evident now Tuchel can bring CBs to the next level.

So I imagined Christensen being an absolute liability before Tuchel and Rudiger being nothing better than decent? Or the fact every single one of us wanted them out before Tuchel?

Both shows level that didn't show until Tuchel came in Rudiger was talked to join spurs and about christensen nobody really cared about him also reece james and mount have a impressive evolution with tuchel Edited July 8, 2022 by Mário César Boycie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
