#14 | Aymeric Laporte - 2020/21 Performances

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

I think Dias is the real deal

 

[mccity]

Seems to be the deeper defender out of the CB pairing. Quietly impressive. Glad he's back.

 

[doobyedoobye]

Laporte and Dias may just be the greatest CB pairing the club has seen in the modern era...

 

[argyle]

Absolute rock at the back

 

[OrigamiNinja]

It looks like Laporte and Dias can be a fantastic partnership and for me, our whole title challenge (if there is to be one) will depend on them. Our midfield and wide forwards are so far below the standards of previous years, that it is now imperative we keep clean sheets. I don’t see us smashing teams left, right and centre, so we are going to have to churn out a surprising number of 1-0s for a Pep side.

Absolutley. The advantage of Dias is that Laporte can just get omn woth being the top defender he is without having to worry about playing with some irractic idiot

I think the defence is fine for the most part but it would be helpful is someone in front of them got close to people or even better, managed to put a tackle in from time to time

[Goater=Legend]

Is he ever going to be in that France squad?

Don't want him infected by Pogba surely ?

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Is he ever going to be in that France squad?

He doesn't have to feel so bad about it. Sylvain Distin had 469 premier league appearances and no French cap either.

Some faces just don't seem to fit
Di Canio and Arteta would have been 1st name choices with almost any country in the world but never made an international appearance

 

[kaz7]

Is he ever going to be in that France squad?

He was called up for the first time, then he got injured , shame for him if the moment has passed

 

[Jag]

Vincent Kompany used to rise to the occasion in the big games. He does the opposite and shrinks.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Not the same player he was. Could say that about many of our current players though.

 

[Kokonut1307]

Keeps shitting the bed against Spurs. Honestly nowhere near Kompany’s level and I doubt he ever will be.

 

[BlueTG]

Flat track bully defender like Stones.

Leave it to the teams in the top 8 and Europe to weed out the shite defenders and he is regularly weeded out.

 

[Trojan1962]

Not been the same since that terrible injury, lost a bit of pace as well

 

[Craig]

Keeps shitting the bed against Spurs. Honestly nowhere near Kompany’s level and I doubt he ever will be.

Good player but will never be close. About half the attributes. Great left peg and very decent though.

 

[Mattyc55]

Awful again in a big game - Kane made him his bitch.

 

[domalino]

This kind of game is why I was laughing at the people pretending Aké wouldn't challenge him for the starting role.
