Devil Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 We desperately need a better partner for Maguire so I'm at least encouraged to see us linked with a few players in that position this summer. Regarding Kounde I've only seen him play a few times one of them was against us in the Semi last season and I've been impressed every game. Having said that he's not the tallest CB so I'd worry like Lindelof he'd get bullied a bit in the Premier league.
MUFC Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 Are there any 6 foot plus CM’s out there from Nigeria, Cameroon or Jamaica?

Cicero Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 We've entered talks according to Romano. Been linked with him for a while now and apparently is Tuchel's first choice CB. Quote EXCL. Chelsea have opened official talks with Sevilla for Jules Koundé. He’s the main target as centre back, negotiations ongoing to reach an agreement. #CFC Koundé is open to accept Chelsea as next clubs as he wants Champions League football. Now it’s up to the two clubs. pic.twitter.com/M4bVua2NU7 — Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 27, 2021
Dave Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 Would be the ideal signing. A year learning alongside Silva before being ready to take over the reigns for the next ten years.

Cicero Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Looks like this is happening. Personal terms agreed and in advanced stages of signing.
...Dan Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 He's very good friends with Tchouaméni. They came through the Bordeaux youth system together, and they both have the same agent, so I wouldn't be surprised to see them reunited at Chelsea. Would be two great signings.
Cicero Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Kurt Zouma to be included in the deal according to Romano.

It sadly probably will be. Feel like we may have missed the boat a bit. We've strengthened as well but I do feel like the ladder is being pulled up a bit.

Spurs is very much subject to them not selling Kane, or if they do, spending the money sensibly. Do you really think Liverpool might drop out? I felt you had found your mojo again towards the end of last season, but then again thinking about it you probably need a bit of a freshen up and it hasn't arrived. I think the reason Tottenham tailed off in the end was as much as anything due to the failure to really strengthen or capitalise when they had the chance to. I'm wondering if Liverpool are making the same mistake.

I'm wondering if Liverpool are making the same mistake. On paper I think we possibly have the strongest first 11 in the.league, certainly right up there. Its our squad depth that let's us down though, the drop off in quality is just too big.
Devil Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 I first noticed Kounde against us in the Europa Semi a year ago, looked so calm on the ball and really good technically. To be fair he has to be as he's not the tallest or strongest centre back but I think Chelsea are getting a fantastic player if they sign him.
Cicero Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 I understand Kounde is brilliant on the ball and is a young talent, but how is he defensively? He is meant to be Azpilicueta's successor, but against Liverpool reminded me of why Azpilicueta was so crucial for us all these years. He is defensively brilliant. Kept Mane out the entire game almost single handedly. He's going to be solely missed.
Cicero Posted August 31, 2021 Posted August 31, 2021 This looks dead in the water. Both clubs don't meet eye to eye on price.
