Toby’s never been quick but he’s been consistently our best defender for about four years. Still is.

Give it one more go today. This could be the final piece that elevates from battling for 3rd/4th to giving us a real shout

I'll be amazed if we aren't having one last go today, Levy will surely be feeling the good vibes from yesterday and a bit more confidence that Jose's leadership this season will mean we can cover a higher cost as a result.

It’s about timing now and the bigger clubs are more in a fudge you mood if things are left late
The only thing in our favour is their debt position is really bad

Interesting so they are open to selling today but not at the last minute, so we have got to about 3pm I would guess.
They then have time to instigate some of their own deals.

He is a very good stopper
And out and out defender IMO
He is one of those who would take a man down rather than let a man through

Wouldn't want a deadline day without at least the possibility and excitement now would we...
My view, he would be our #1 CB at 25 ..
If we ended up in a situation where we couldn't close it now (e.g. because Inter needs a replacement), but we could pretty much lock it to execute in Jan, I'd wait vs. another "developing" CB

Thanks. It’s not a high bar to be our #1 centre back and agree we only want the finished arrive (especially for the fee suggested). I just thought there might be a few others in world football who would fit the bill for the price.
Given what we’ve seen so far this window I’m more than happy to trust Mourinho on this though!

Thanks. Any viable alternatives for the same cost in your view?

The lad from a juve is very good but had horrendous injury issues
Ozan Kodak is meant to be great at Schalke but when I saw them post lockdown he looked toss to me and he also has had dumpling issues. I think he is going to Milan now for €15m
Unfortunately I think there aren't too many quality CB's out there
- Look at Dias to City, 65M+ for potential (effectively same type of purchase we made with Sanchez)
To me, I really don't understand how someone hasn't gone for Koulibaly (out of our price range)

Dealing with Napoli is known to be hard
The value the have on an older player is also I believe deemed to be a risk
He was also poor last season by his won standards so his value is mainly on previous years
Would you pay that premium now?
For us Koulibaly is too much of a risk .. but for United, City or Pool, should be an easy move ..

But those clubs may not have the money
It’s a long contract on big money so the outlay would be something like £130M
