| Issa Diop on 07:38 - Jul 20 with 6699 views | RIPbobby | This seems to me like a well thought out purchase. 100% concur with this. |  | |  |
| Issa Diop on 07:38 - Jul 20 with 6675 views | WolfieAtTheBack | He def has PL experience so that box is ticked, big lad too. |  | |  |
| Issa Diop on 07:43 - Jul 20 with 6562 views | Litfc00 | Isn’t the best on the ball and can be prone to a clumsy moment, but he’s a man mountain and a great box defender / aerial presence. Can cover Dara at RCB in a back four, can also play in the middle of a three if we change system. Feels like a pretty solid pickup at a reasonable price (£8 million ish) |  | |  |
| Issa Diop on 07:44 - Jul 20 with 6540 views | pingu67 | Is he not a right sided centre back, big, strong, quick good player with good experience but we need a left sided centre back don't we? |  | |  |

I think Greaves is going to smash it this season. Also could be a three CBs scenario. |  |

If he can stop adjusting his hair for two minutes…. |  |

| Issa Diop on 07:53 - Jul 20 with 6248 views | TownieRob | I cannot say I am overly familiar with him, however his size, PL experience, World Cup experience suggests to me this is a decent bit of business (if the price is right, of course). There is a clear theme with the players we have signed, close to signing and that's presence. Something I felt we missed terrible when we we came up last time. It's a yes from me. |  | |  |

I like greaves and hope he does well this season but currently on the right we have o'shea and kipre but left we only have greaves Maybe diop can play left side if needs be or as has been said would be useful in a back 3 |  | |  |

If, as some think, we're thinking of a back three, then maybe O'Neil is looking at him on the right, O'Shea in the middle and Greaves/Kipre on the left? [Post edited 20 Jul 7:56]

Kipre plays at LCB (at least, he did last season). |  |

| Issa Diop on 08:14 - Jul 20 with 5674 views | TRUE_BLUE123 | Out of nowhere. Watching the World Cup he was a really stand out defender. Thought he was superb. |  |

Good for £8.5m I think, yeah. Some experience that's useful as well. |  |

Wouldn’t be surprised if we went three at the back for a lot of games. [Post edited 20 Jul 8:21]

Seems unlikely a guy like him would sign for us, at a peak age for a centre back, knowing that our captain would be our #1 choice as right back, in a back four. West Ham paid £20m when they brought him over from France as a 20 year old; he's not coming here to be a back up defender. IF we are going to be playing with three centre backs though ... perfick. |  |

With respect, if Kipre is playing for us in the PL I'd think something has failed in the transfer window. He's ok, but not anywhere near PL level |  | |  |
