Napoli not wanting to sell him to us might be a blessing in disguise for us IMO. Nothing that I've read and seen from KK has convinced me of him being a good enough CB for nowadays' football and with Zouma/Terry/Cahill(/Ivanovic) as the current other options at CB our play from the back would continue to be abysmal, to put it mildly.

Β 

I don't get this club's love affair with technically poor players. I really don't.

This is getting ridiculous. Have people here even watched Koulibaly play? To put Koulibaly's ball playing abilities in the same category as Terry's or Cahill's is an insult.

Koulibaly IS a very good ball playing defender. He can carry the ball out from the back past another player or twoΒ and give to an offensive midfielder quickly. He can also hit accurate long balls once in a while. Terry and Cahill can't even move the ball forward.

Don't think people should put so much future on zouma till after his back in form.Β 

Because a very bad injury like that is sometimes a career killer.Β 

I agree look at essien for example he wasn't never the same after his injuriesΒ

We should play with Napoli till last day, then pay whatever price for Koulibaly, hijack Maksimovic deal the same second and when Napoli would be panicking, we should offer De Laurentis our very own Hector for 30m.Β

Unfortunately these are serious people, dealing with serious amounts of money, and they know their business.

If MaksimovicΒ to Napoli is anΒ IntragalΒ part of Di LaurentisΒ being prepared to sell KouliballyΒ to us then, we can rest assuredΒ that it will be covered in the transfer contract between Chelsea and Napoli.

Funny thing is, people who said we should have got a CB in for pre season, well we did, but unfortunately that particular rug got pulled from under our feet as he done his ACL.

Whats even more ironic however, is no one fucking wanted him :lol:

Do you think that's an excuse? Just a bad luck and there was enough time to aim to another defender and sign him before our pre season. And I don't know why you are so sure that we were getting him. There was nothing official and you know that is hard to deal with Italian clubs, we were close to signing Raja too, but we all know where that went.

I reckon hes coming. I feel it in me water! I know its gonna be hard on the lad but Happy is young and fit and with out Meds team/physios etc theyre among the best in sport so hes in the best hands available. Get him and man mountain together with the pocket rocket we got a good strong spine again.

He is coming, pretty sure about it. Well, conservatively saying, I believe at least one CB is coming. There's no way Conte and our board would be that fucking retard to let go the likes of Djilo and Hector without a certain new comer, it just doesn't make any sense.

We can always get another Hector and Dijilo.Β :philjones

Gazzetta reporting that if Koulibaly chase leads to nowhere, Chelsea could yet go for Nikola Maksimovic who's been the rumored Koulibaly replacement lined up by Napoli. Now that would be ironic.

Wouldn't mind that happening tbh, from what I've heard about him during this Koulibaly saga he comes across as a pretty decent player too and would mean not dealing with ADL. Maksimovic has burnt bridges to his current club Torino by going missing from training so would probably be a pretty straightforward signing to pull off at around €25m, less than half of Koulibaly's price.

Maksimovic is a very underrated defender. IΒ prefer him above Mustafi TBH...but I still prefer K2..Β
