June 11, 201610 yr Apparently Ricardo Rodriguez' agent has claimed that his release clause has been activated before the Euros and a deal is almost complete. Please please be us. I know myself and a few others were disappointed we went for Rahman instead but it's time to rectify that mistake.

Surprised he lasted so long at Wolfsburg as it is...
June 11, 201610 yr Napoli want 40 mln EUR for Koulibaly. Not that terrible given Man Utd were willing to give the same amount for Baiilly, who is far from a finished product and not as good, while we were more than willing to pay more than that for a less talented Stones. http://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/chelsea-fc-transfer-rumours-news/2016/6/10/11903166/kalidou-koulibaly-40m-transfer-napoli-chelsea-4m-wages

Another player i would be gutted to miss out on.

Far far better than Stones. i read online that it's 40m euros also? That actually works out a really decent deal. That's around 30-32m of my maths is correct.
June 11, 201610 yr If it is indeed City, then what the hell is the point in playing next season. It makes sense actually as Pep has complimented him each time they've played. Damn, it's going to be Coty isn't it? They're expected to sign Laporte in the next few days. Rodriguez would solve a weaker area for them. Laporte and Kompany would be outrageous of Kompany can stay fit. Can't see Mangala staying and Otamendi is a lot better than his first season appeared. I don't think they're covered at right back though as both are ageing. He will probably go out and sign someone there too. Im worried about this season already. City have a decent squad and Pep could win the league with those players. He's adding quality though already and hasn't even officially taken charge yet.
June 11, 201610 yr yup it's 31 m pounds That's cheaper than what Everton want for the worlds most erratic defender, John Stones.
June 11, 201610 yr if it wasn't for christensen i would've paid those 31 m w/o second thoughts But let's think long term for a while 207-18 season :zouma,christensen,koulibaly and only 2 cb positions How effective is he as a fullback do we know?

Take your point but it's a squad game. Need at least 4 cbs in my view. Zouma, Koulibaly, Christiansen and Clarke-Salter looks handy in two seasons time.
June 12, 201610 yr “The player has 3 more years left on his contract and will not move from here, and will pay a hefty fine. I’m not angry so much with him, but I amazed because I think the guy is above average. “I did not think that he betrayed the contract on image rights. I had calls from twenty sponsors who were signing with us and have pulled back because the image Koulibaly has put out, and lost credibility. “All of this will fall on the player, poor fellow. He probably will have to pay a few million euros to Napoli in the coming years,” Antonio de Laurentiis told Sky(via TMW ).

June 12, 201610 yr Why is that every single player we go for their club doesn't want to sell to us? They dont sell players easily in general. Time for plan B if they dig their heels in
June 12, 201610 yr They dont sell players easily in general. Time for plan B if they dig their heels inEvery other club seems to have no difficulties acquiring players.
June 12, 201610 yr Every other club seems to have no difficulties acquiring players. We aren't shelling out money like we used to when Roman first came. We are more like the Arsenal of old -- reluctant to make high bids...looking to make profit. Which is strange. I read a while back a quote from Roman where he insisted the club isn't about making profit and it's about winning games. Well, then why are we taking flyers on falcao and pato? Why not shell out the quid for Auba, Nainggolan, etc?

Prefer a CB presence, imagine him up against Andy Carroll.
