#14 | Aymeric Laporte - 2020/21 Performances

[cleavers]

Well done him.

A sign of the times, we have the most players in that squad at 4, and Real Madrid ZERO.

Delighted for Laporte. Treated very shoddy by France. He has wasted enough years not playing international football. Hopefully he stays with city for a few more years. 3 top CB is fantastic.

Strange Pep didn't play him after Chelsea (1:2). Think he is likely to leave if a club (Real?) pay the asking price. Wouldn't blame him, he's too good to sit out the biggest games, given he would be a firm starter at almost every other club.

Why has he come out with these comments this week, of all weeks?

 

[skillman]

Day before the Champions League final. That’ll go down well with Pep and the board, fuck me.

Players who are left out of Pep teams but then come back into them are the ones who keep quiet and get their head down to prove themselves. Laporte hasn’t done that with a few of these comments. Albeit 2 or 3 but to the people in charge, that’s 2 or 3 too many.

 

[Jamiblue]

To be fair, that interview could’ve been done weeks ago. How much of a coincidence is it that we just so happen to have a big game tomorrow and Indyfootball release it now.
I could be wrong though.

 

[Gabriel]

Love how Bluemoon works itself into a proper lather over such a report. It contains the line:

‘I was playing more I think or maybe less but I don’t know,..’

What does that even mean? It would make much more sense if ‘drinking’ replaced ‘playing’.

 

[Cobra]

Why has he come out with these comments this week, of all weeks?

Well presumably he’s been asked about his playing time, and he’s literally come out and said that he won’t say anything at the moment. What else is he supposed to say?

Go and read the full set of quotes. He says “it is difficult to accept” being in the side less. Even to questions where he clearly wasn’t asked about playing time he brought it up.
