I guess my problem is that John Stones and Ruben Dias kept 13 clean sheets in 19 games last season, had our defence the most solid it has ever looked, were keeping sides to having 0 shots on target regularly and people are pretending Laporte is a better CB.
He rightfully got dropped last season based on form and not 3 months later demanded to leave, which is weak as piss, and yet for some reason people pretend that's not happened, and he sill wants to leave.
There are plenty of CBs in the world who want to play for the best side in Europe, if Laporte wants to leave, he can go.
