If he wants to play then he should come to utd imo, he isn't starting above vdv and romero

[–] JessyPengkman@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

would he start over Martinez or Varane?

Will SJR let Nice top talent go anywhere to the PL that's not United?

United also need a CB. I would say.

Depends on the player doesn't it? Can't hold a gun to someone's head...

[–] xckd9@alien.top 2 points 11 months ago

Not with that attitude

[–] Orcnick@alien.top 2 points 11 months ago

I don't see why Todibo wouldn't want to come to United considering Varane might be on his way out. First team football, CL as well.

[–] YoungDawz@alien.top 2 points 11 months ago

He's pretty much guaranteed a starting spot at Man Utd and for a player trying to establish himself as a starting CB for the French NT, that is more valuable than being in the mix for a starting spot at Tottenham with tougher competition.

Everyone gonna take them to the cleaners with VdV out for ages

So they figured out now that having Dier as the 3rd choice was a bad idea?

[–] TheGoldenPineapples@alien.top 2 points 11 months ago

Only took them five years.

How does this comment have 70 upvotes? we were already looking to offset dier and get another CB before last window ended, we just couldn't, his contract is running out next summer.

Wasn't this a barca kid?

[–] eeeagless@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeh remember some ridiculous ego stories on here.

[–] Thefifaking132@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Perfect for man utd then

[–] seanlilmateus@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I really liked his partnership with Saliba at Nice; they were real good

[–] mykl5@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It’s wild to me how this guy looks quite large, and really is the same size as a point guard like Steph Curry

[–] dakinekine@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

There’s a race to sign Todibo? I remember when Barca were having a hard time finding a home for him.

[–] Call_me_Tetsuo@alien.top 2 points 11 months ago

He regularly makes the bench for the most stacked national football team in the world (France). He's still only 23 years-old. He was at Barca during the Barto-era and was very young, even at the time a lot of people felt he wasn't ready for Barca.

[–] zaaaac93@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He is good. Reminds me a bit of Saliba tbh. Far far better than Badiashile or Disasi if you ask me

[–] doomboxmf@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I was thinking this summer we should’ve gone for Todibo instead of Disasi

[–] zaaaac93@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

For real when you were seeing the outrageous amount of goals the two of them were conceding when playing together for Monaco, I can't understand how you could put 80M for both. Colwill and Fofana are so much better and still very young
