Aymeric Laporte 2018 performances

[Danjo]

Smashing debut, looks a lot stockier than I thought, didn’t really have much defending to do and I’ll be interested to see what he’s like when he gets turned but can’t fault him, some lovely passing, especially when you consider he’s only had 45 mins of training.

He’s also got huge feet......looked like he was wearing canoes from the second tier!!

 

[capiloton]

i like the way he switch the ball to another flank.
it's like deep playing playmaker playing as CB.

In the context that he joined literally yesterday his performance was excellent. Best debut since?

Is the right answer

Pffft, are you forgetting Mangala's debut?

It has gone down in Bluemoon folklore as the single best performance from a City player ever let alone debut.

 

[Bluekiwi]

It seems he slotted in comfortably - wait till he gets used to the players around him and then sit back and enjoy

Yeah, can't forget that one! He had a stormer against Chelshits.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

The comparisons with Kolarov's build up are absolutely bang on. Prepared to carry the ball forward if there's no pass, and also has that cross field diagonal to the right winger. Let's just hope his defending is better!

Looks like we have a great young player after last night's performance,, you can see why we have wanted him for 2 years.

 

[meeesh]

Excellent,and as I hoped got his first start immediately,not waiting to have a baptism of fire at Wigan as was predicted on here

 

[SublimeSane]

Giggled a few times when he sprayed a few 60 yards to Walker - then Ederson done it 60 seconds later . Madness.

Nothing mentioned but the media are creaming when pogbad pops one in a match, quoting his 90 million worth !

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Ardwick - Aymeric! Aymeric - Ardwick. 'Twas in the stars he would be here! Wonder if the club has taken him on a tour of his home district?

 

[Mike D]

Far too early to tell my gran would have looked good against them last night and she has been dead 25 years. Not to have mustarded anything on goal until a corner in 82nd minute says it all.

 

[twosips]

He belongs, doesn't he? Gonna be special this lad.

 

[Bill]

He did well. Nothing to defend but slotted right in. Good passing.
Well done Pep great move playing him last night.

 

[City_Sean]

Bit of hyperbole here as he didn’t have much to do in a defensive capacity. It was a good debut, some nice passes. Be interested to see if Pep starts him away at Burnley on Saturday.

 

[bellsouth]

Calm and assured, comfortable on the ball, exactly what we need for a CB, just like Ederson, he immediately brings a reassurance.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

As you would expect, he was comfortable in possession and his range of passing was excellent.
