    Toby Sibbick (19) from AFC Wimbledon. Not a first team level player but seen this on his wiki;
    Sounds like he'd suit our style of play.

    Experienced CB who wouldn't cost a lot, was MLS defender of the year in 2017 Ike Opara

    Tomas Kalas linked with Fulham (where he was on loan last season), and recently Middlesbrough. Would cost between £5-£10m, 25k per week. Chelsea's longest serving player but spent most of his time out on loan.

    25 and ready to sign a long term deal by all accounts. Might be worth a punt.

    18 year old serbian cb.... Seems a bit of a high fee, wonder if there is any truth to it.

    Thoughts on Rafa Varane?

    Bit different a guy playing in the French League, notoriously defensive and high standard to the Serbian notoriously attacking and tactically garbage.

    My point is forget his or any other players age, take them on their own merits.

    I dont like the thought of us nursing another prospect at the back, we're already doing that with Ajer. Would be good to have two solid guys either side of Ajer.

    No reason to pass up opportunities just because we require different attributes.

    If we only sign 1 centre half and he’s 18 I’d agree with you.

    Excellent 25 year old CB. Fk knows what it has to do with a 18 year old CB mind you.

    Naw he wisnae, I guarantee it was Pepe and Ramos.

    We need someone with a wee bit of experience, not a daft young boy, there isn't many great 18 year old cbs in the world, even Varane wasnt all that, tbh he's only getting a lookin last couple of years.

    We're waiting for a young English guy for loan, think Tyler Blackett.

    He’d played 40 games before his 19th birthday, 15 of them at Madrid. Only getting a look in last couple of years :56:

    Check your facts, it’s easy to do.

    15? As I said I don't have a clue what you're trying to get at.
    We need someone to get someone to stabilise our back line, an 18 year old isn't going to do that.

    And I'll reiterate he's only become a regular CH for them in past 2 seasons or so.

    Maybe I've missed a post or two that made reference to something else, if so then my bad.

    Robert Huth on a free for a season, could surely help shore up our defence plus is a goal threat at set pieces
