Aymeric Laporte

[MeatHunterrr]

DiMarzio got this one wrong, or he changed his mind last minute like Delph.

Here we go...

What?

 

[RichardDunneOwnGoal]

This is an absolutely enormous blow.

This was the move we really needed. Genuinely gutted.

Just be stuck with spending an utter fortune for overrated shite like Stones then.

 

[HelloCity]

Ric said he had agreed to come?!

;)

 

[01cravend]

The only thing Laporte is better than Stones at is Heading

Well i'm happy

 

[Blue Smarties]

Didn't see that coming.

 

[Andouble]

Delighted if it means Denayer actually gets a fair shot.

 

[HelloCity]

Weird how they announced the new release clause.

Wonder if we're still going to pay it.

I guess he has made his decision. A little surprised given what we can offer him, financially and in sporting terms.

On to the next one....

 

[razman]

WOW......This move was dragging on for so long. Dont understand why we didnt pay his release clause earlier......think we missed here!

well , if a player doesn't want to come , you can't force it

sucks for the player though...0 ambition

 

[Blue warrior]

My thoughts are he had agreed to come and bottled it at the 11th hour shit bag, enjoy a trophyless career!

 

[Cityisland]

What?

Just sit back and watch.

He/ they can fuck right off, £39m was more than enough

My guess is that he changed his mind last minute

 

[Wolfkin]

Really can't see Pep keeping Mangala, so maybe Stones and Denayer?

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

That's fine by me if he wants to stay at Bilbao finish 5th-8th every season and never win anything. Whilst we'll still be challenging for everything and have the best manager in the world incoming

 

[Bluewonder]

In the know

 

[Pubteam Lomas]

Just throwing this out there, but wonder if we'd had the results of the medical back and wanted to pay fee in instalments?
