#6 | Nathan Aké - 2021/22 Performances

[5 Hit Gibbon]

A fair assessment of where we are at. Biggest concern for me is not the mistakes it's how he slows our possession down by taking far too many touches. maybe a confidence thing - we will find out in the coming weeks.

Hopefully not as with any luck he will be nowhere near the starting line up.

That’s what surprised me - for a Dutch international who came through Chelsea’s academy and played a large chunk of his formative years in midfield, he’s woeful on the ball.

Is he going to be the new BM boo boy?

I think we're going to see more of Mendy this season. So Aké, Rodri, Mendy, Jesus, and maybe Sterling can duke it out for the title.

And there iis always a surprise package.

David Silva in 2018, Walker on occasion, don't underestimate the boo boy.

My money's on Ruben if his performances slip from last year.

A good outside bet.

Not for me. What I meant was that unless we get unlucky with injuries Stones & Dias will be playing as many games as possible. Hopefully Laporte will stay also. If so, the amount of games that Ake plays in the PL will be limited.

There's a gulf in class between those 3 and Ake.

[Tugay One Cup]

The only thing he seems to lack, for me, is confidence. He still plays a bit like he has stage fright and I wonder how much his injuries have prolonged that.

He's a quality player. Maybe not on the level of Stones and Dias last season or Laporte before his injury but he's a bloody good player. Hopefully we get to see that whenever he plays for us.
