As a Liverpool fan, it will take, a bit of time for Koulibaly to be better than Rudiger!! Rudiger … and Mendy were the reason we drew 0-0 with Chelsea in two cup finals! Everyone who knows something about football, knows how almost impossible it is to stop LFC from scoring!!
It's a Great move for Chelsea, a very good professional and his experience is a plus for us Team Chelsea. I mean, other teams signed world class quality strikers, we are prepared to make their strikers inferior before our Defense with Koulibaly and Kimpepe next. So we are Better Prepared for next season. ๐ Thank you. ๐๐
Drop Sterling play Kai there then Lewndowski.
People are not talking enough about the fact that Chilwell amd James are back healthy. That's huge for this team.
hahahahah
ESPN have started their ridiculous headlines again๐
Such a good player. The only player I've seen put Salah in his pocket every time he plays him.
I'm a Liverpool fan, so I'm disappointed that a rival is signing him but he's a top quality signing, and 31 for a CB is almost his Prime.
I like KK 2 years ago but he's an older slower version of Rudiger. Get Chelsea defense a couple walkers and theyll be fine. ๐คฃ
Koulibaly is much better than overpaid and overrated Rudiger. Rudiger never has a calming presence like VVD and Koulibaly.
Why has no side moved for him before?
Del Piero never gets old , legend
Koulibaly is the perfect signing after Toni departures….after Rudiger and christensen departures and soon perhaps Alonso and Azpi.
Bring back Christina this chick is too bitchy.
United or PSG shouldโve bought him last year now itโs Chelsea whoโll have the chance. United especially as they have stacked squad last year but thanks to calamity that is Maguire no one will ever want to partner with him on defense.
Coulibaly is a good player
Ok so defense good but, whoโs scoring all the goals? Werner and Sterling? ๐คฃ
Don't let Del Piero speak about Napoli and Koulibaly ; a former player who was on napoli's enemies side and from Juventus; one of the most corrupted football club in the world!
Utd really y dt you buy this guy really omg
Thiago Silva hasn't taught weird fans an age lesson.
The reason his age is not a problem for Chelsea is because they are in a more win now part of the project. He's got at least 2-3 seasons were I won't expect his form to drop and his mind will take over more. And at that price what a steal
Bienvenue koulibaly ๐ธ๐ณโค
Ake is going nowhere…
ESPN is looking to jinx us with all this favorites. Let our team just play quality football
3-4 years at top level with Chelsea and 5th year at Chelsea teaching the youngsters
Imagine a back three of Koulibali, Silva and Kimpembe. Man no1 is getting past that. They are all beasts and have great reading of the game.
title baiting, bringing in one player then suddenly they r favorites for the PL
Winning the league!? Hahahaha. Definitely not. First of all, serie a is not anywhere near the level of the PL. Second, heโs not as good as Rudiger, no matter what these analysts say. If he was, Madrid wouldโve signed Koulibaly and not Rudiger. Third, Koulibaly is very injury prone in the last 2-3 seasons.
Good signing โ๏ธ
last time too we were favourite with lukaku signing…hahaha
what happened to kunde?
here comes the yearly ESPN Jinx. Pls stop it. You called it when we signed Lukaku saying last piece of jigsaw, but you all just jinx us time & again. GTHO. It is one team league – Money bags. It is Citeh's to lose always.
No we're not favorite
3rd Best CB in the league after Van Dijk and Dias. Great signing, many clubs wanted him for years
I don't know what Julien Laurens is smoking. He should stop asap!
Plastic chelsea buying a 31 year old defender now all of a sudden they will win the premier league. What a joke Chelsea are trash
Koulibaly will set a new standard in the prem
No, don't start this conversation. We said the same thing 12 months ago and we didn't come remotely close.
We still need to sell a lot of dead weight, buy another CB, and drastically improve our finishing.
Welcome to Stamford Bridge,Kouli!
Ha! They were favourites a year ago too after getting "missing piece in the jigsaw" Lukaku. Finished a whole 19 points behind the winners and 18 behind the runners-up. Chelsea are a good team, but it's time to face up to reality: as far as the league is concerned the gap with City and LFC is huge. They haven't finished above 3rd or even challenged for the title at all since winning it under Conte 5 years ago. The closest they finished to the winners was 19 pts in 2021 and 2022, that's is nowhere near the level required to be champions.
Can't say we would win title.
Our back line may not concede many but our attack is where we still need to strengthen as last season we were missing chances to win games.
