Jype 6,398 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Just now, oldportblue said: some of the posters here are downright embarrassing... it's like our board is an embarrassment for not throwing an extra 20M straight away when a bid is rejected. Some of the spoiled fans here are a bad look for our club Kind of agree with that, signings like this are not made overnight so if the bid is now £40M that's a good starting point for negotiations which might drag on for a while so expecting the club to just throw around money like it's nothing is stupid. 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. In the meantime they've been busy chasing Lukaku whose signing would be more than ridiculous, not to mention hell of a lot more expensive than Koulibaly could ever be. Now that is something I can understand people slagging the board over, but not for trying to be sensible about the situation now. 16 minutes ago, Gilvorak said: We just bid a World record fee for a defender & you guys are slagging off the board. You can't make this shit up. What do you mean? Just today there was a way more expensive defender signing announced by Manchester City than what the highest bid for Koulibaly has been at any point.

simonez 69 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Apparently Koulibaly is a bit overrated on here, if you believe he's a world class defender with Pirlo's ability on the ball you're wrong. Thanks to Maurizio Sarri's tactical influence the last season he's been extremely good and rightly considered by many as the best centre-back in Serie A (especially in the first half of the season) but not long ago he was like a poor version of David Luiz. For £30m he was a gamble worth taking, £45m+ is just madness. quickpassnmove 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xPetrCechx 13,571 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 #Torino have rejected ADL's €25m offer for Maksimovic, which is understandable. Toro already lost Glik to Monaco. Losing both would hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,916 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 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. Gilvorak and Unionjack 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,916 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 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. Gilvorak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Gilvorak 3,734 Posted August 9, 2016 Popular Post! Share Posted August 9, 2016 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.
