He’s actually not as good as Maguire

£100m - bloody hell, Juve are having your pants down if you pay that much

posted on 26/6/22

Can't see Tuchel going for him...Specially in the premier league...Look at Maguire. He would be a super defender in the Dutch league, but barely can defend in this league...Unless defending is classed as standing like a built wardrobe!

Lot of rumours and links between clubs and players are nothing but hearsay started by their management team.

The usage of online media has made this process easier for the player's PR team to spread stories that have no basis at all.

There’s a lot of reporting saying that Tuchel has said no to Kounde because he prefers de ligt. Considering Tuchel was all for Lukaku despite hating Abraham, I think it’s clear that Tuchel is awful at identifying good players to buy and should have no say whatsoever in transfer targets. He can stick to coaching the players.

A £100m on de ligt would be crazy, Juve spent £70m on him and he has more or less been a flop considering what was expected. If your dropping that sort of money for a CB then Gvardiol is better value.

Very odd if true

I read that De Ligt is Tuchel's first choice, with Kimpembe and Ake as backup options

Morespurs to be honest I think I would trust Tuchels decision on which CB to go after, than your opinion.
You are on your own board advocating that Spurs sign Torres, Torres cant head a ball, I hope you do buy him.
Strike you again are making you feelings known about De Ligt, but then on your board asking for Bastoni, thats the CB who got tore apart other week and even the Italian press were deriding him.
de Ligt is recognised an mentioned by many experst as being in top 5 of CB's in the world.
I am sure Klopp would love to buy him to partner Van Dyke like they do for Netherlands.
I will trust Tuchel on this
And Wahl who says we wont buy Kounde as well
I really would like to know who you actually support, it is certainly not Chelsea

If I was you I’d stop reading nonsense articles. Also stop acting like you’ve watched either of them

There's no way we're paying £100 million or anything close to that for de Ligt.

We won't buy Kounde. Tuchel has said no and decided he wants the dutch Harry Maguire instead . It's been reported everywhere the last few days.

posted on 26/6/22

Morespurs surely its very simple to understand, you are on here comparing de Ligt to Harry Maguire , is that not the case?
And yet you are on your own board stating Spurs should sign Torres, who again I state if useless in an aerial duel, he cannot head a ball.
How can you not understand that?

My feelings and indeed my comment was clear - it would be crazy to pay 100m euros for him. I agree he is a good defender, but that price tag is ridiculous considering how he has performed at Juve.

Bastoni - does not look like we will get. My main reason for wanting him is that he is seemingly Conte’s first choice, however if the price tag was 100m euros I would be dead against it as he just leant warrant that price the same as de ligt does not.

I don’t think any of that can be misconstrued as anti Chelsea or jealousy, it’s just my opinion and it’s as useless and misguided as every other on this site

He may well go to Liverpool. Klopp seems keen on him:

De Ligt is a world class defender. Quick, aggressive and good in the air. Kounde is too short for the PL in a two mans defence. He could be good in a back three to hide his short comings.

Dutch Maguire is a good one actually.

By all accounts he’s not even the best Dutch cb in Serie A.
