Don't think letting Otamendi go was ever part of the plans, with doubts remaining over Kompany's fitness. Think the Bonucci boat has sailed, but wouldn't be surprised if we went back in for Laporte next summer.
I'm not sure we will go in for Laporte again now mate. We placed a huge amount of faith in still pursuing him after his ankle break, yet he left us hanging and eventually signed a new deal.
Curiously, I wonder what he thinks of his decision to stay at Bilbao now, especially after seeing our superb start to the season.
