Boateng has lost his pace and his best time is long gone. 5 years ago it would have been a good signing but since then he spends too much time trying to be a fashion influencer. Hard pass in these kind of stopgap signings bigbluewillie, Artandur and Vesper 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milka 3,395 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) Chelsea have been working on the deal for some time and if 'nothing goes wrong', Boateng will become the first signing of the Thomas Tuchel era.

Vesper 30,260 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 So many (hopefully 100% bullshit) articles that, if true, would mean our starting 3 CBs' ages next season would be 32 Azi 33 Boateng 37 Thiago Silva if true, we are turning into Juventus without the 9 in a row titles or CL finals (2 of the past 5 years, both losses, they are shit in CL/European Cup finals, won 2, lost 7) just NO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big no here as well.....Upa all day over him. I need to watch Upamecano some more. He was in a terrible slump last year. so bad I pulled him off my lists. Jose Gimenez and Savic got roasted last night on a late game-tying goal by Celta Vigo. I want Fofana from Leicester, even with him out for a spell. He was close to the 2nd best CB in the EPL (after Dias) for a couple months before his injury. He is bigger (1.90m v 1.86m) and faster than Upamecano as well, and is already EPL-proven, to a point. He had benched Caglar Söyüncü, who is another really sold CB. Atomiswave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point.....what about Konate, 21 and a tank. Could well be awesome here. Though Alaba comes for free, his wage demands are a big worry.

Very few players about of the right quality and those that are about are super expensive. £100m in wages for 29 year old Alaba? £100m plus top wages for Gimenez? Take a risk on Upamecano or Konute and hope that they continue develop and do not stall like AC or Zouma? In my opinion, CB is the one position where age is not so much of an issue as long as the players still have reasonable legs and have been top players. With the other holes we need to fill (namely CF and DM) it may have to be a case of go for experienced older players and maybe try out Geuhi and Amapdu and see if they can develop were AC and Zouma stalled.
