City gambled on no injuries to the CB`s in the summer, it was a gamble that failed, so we have bought a player that is comfortable on the ball, he is not as good as the Ake that we bought, but that is not the Ake we have, i believe Max will surpass him, but that is not now, we have a need and he fill most of it. Lets hope we do not fail the signing like we failed the Phillips signing, £20 million is fantastic but we must reduce the wage through the signing on fee, £50 million in signing on fee and transfer fee would still be a bargain, a take the pain now, that gives the player something to achieve.
