Aymeric Laporte

[razman]

He’s not happy about not having a press conference to say goodbye according to his Instagram post

Instagram / Social Media is enough !

He has mugged us off enough last time.... he does what we say :)



this is the reason...City laying down the law

 

[Easy]

Strange move to wait until tomorrow to announce Laporte when Bilbao have already confirmed his release clause was paid...

They want to do it all glitzy with the video interviews etc. Probably looking for a piano as we speak...

They aren't going to make an announcement without any interview or photos. They will need to work on that today/early tomorrow.

 

[burning blue soul]

....now then, to the Fred thread!!!


UPDATE...

.....to the Zaha Fred!!!!

No, play Spanish guitar wearing a basque. That will upstage Sanchez.

All of it should have been done already IMO.

I love this board. God help me, I do love it so.

The 23-year-old is expected to fly to Manchester by private jet tonight to compete the formalities, after having a medical in Spain at the weekend

Aymeric Laporte passed his Manchester City medical on Sunday and will be presented officially on Tuesday. City have informed the Basque club that they will pay his release clause today, with their lawyers moving to Madrid from Bilbao to finalise the deal. [El Correo]

You really think he hasn’t been in Manchester already???

Just like Bernardo. There was word he is in Manchester in the airport and shortly after he was announced.

Me right now:

So in past hour one good news (Laporte), one bad (Fred off this window) and one - what the hell - Zaha maybe in case Sane is out for months.

 

[Aussie!]

So, with Laporte in, who goes out between Otamendi & Stones? Im assuming we didnt spend 65m+ for him to be backup.

Wait, what happened with Fred?

No one right away. Proabably will be bedded in and play in a back three at times.

Twosips says off this window and we have switched focus to a back up to Sane.

Pep may be thinking of playing a back three in Champions League matches.
