Transfer Rumour Kalidou Koulibaly

[Zatara]

Not my centre half.

Jose Gimenez though.

He's also brilliant.

I love watching Napoli, so here's my quick take...a bit clumsy at times, but other times he's completely dominant. Just overwhelms opponents. Inconsistent still in passing, but his first touch seems pretty good. He is still improving and honestly could be the best center back in the world in a couple years. It's a big number, though.

He can look a bit ungainly, I don't think he looks clumsy...but hes rapid to get the ball back if he does look at bit odd sometimes.

His passing stats are among the best in Serie A though?

I wouldn't be surprised if madrid signed him but perhaps theyre waiting a year or two until he gets a bigger profile

 

[TheFinnFan]

We d have to pay big to get him. Slim chance imho

 

[MikeH72]

Oh god no.

Not another summer of his face in the transfer thread header.

Just put Marcus Bent and Jermaine Beckford up there.

It'll be Pickford, Sigurdsson and Rooney I reckon.

 

[Niapper]

Very unlikely.. but we'll see

Afcon? I thought he was French National. I like signing this guy to my Team in Fifa. Straight Boss 6'5 defender. France has a lot of African heritage players good talents should recruit some of them. Like I said before, If i never get a match on the pitch for Everton. I can scout Africa for them. I have connections in Africa been there a few times.

I too have connections in Africa, maybe we can scout together.

Do you know Dave??

Have you sat down to watch him play yet Zat or you still relying on the YouTube?

I think Koulibaly is a very good player and probably at VVD's level in terms of quality.

He definitely goes a bit Funes Mori with his decision making at times, though. Difference is he has the pace and strength to recover.

Cheers mate.

If Koulibaly has improved hugely under Sarri you'd have thought he'd continue in a similar vein under Koeman.

Rooney and Cedric? no mate....just no.

Koulibaly would be in the PFA team of the year every year here...having a chance of someone like him joining is a fantastic opportunity and would be a massive statement of intent

For £55m though ? We need to improve a few areas of our squad IMO. Rooney is pretty much a dead cert according to most.
Don't get it twisted, im not saying I wouldn't have koulibaly, or he is rubbish or anything, just saying £55m for a CB when we need 5-6 positions improved/covered is a massive amount of money IMO.

Cedric from Southampton and Bertrand for me are two great options for us, I don't think we will get either, certaintly not both. Only Liverpool are allowed to buy from them when they want.

Just to clarify, I think KK is a monster. Wouldn't mind him and Mbodj for the right price.

Don't do this to yourselves, file under regurgitated rumour

 

[Pabbers]

The prem needs big monstert groks at the back, not fancy pants JOhns stones types, just doesnt work.

This guy would be perfic.

File it under posturing to get the club, he really wants, to react!
