#6 | Nathan Aké - 2021/22 Performances

[Kinkladze 1]

Waste of space. Will never be good enough, £40 million down the drain, we've already lost everytime he appears on the team sheet...

Making a lot of people look like mugs, long may it continue.

He was on the team sheet last night and we didn’t lose……. Just saying.

He is a very good player… hope he stays around but there will be plenty of clubs interested in the summer.

I really can't see him nor the club wanting a move now. And we're swimming in blood stained petro-dollars remember. No need for cash.

 

[Hart of the Matter]

Stepped up as he often does. Excellent squad player....

We beat Burnley and athletico with him starting so that's wrong

Based on the last 2 games you must surely re-evaluate your opinion a little or are you just stuck in your ways and opinion

He looked composed and assured last night - coming into this important game have only played 1 full match in the previous 3 or so months

We are lucky to have such a good back up imo

I think his opinion is the bit in the second line mate - the first being a summary of the opinions he’s increasingly making look so ridiculous!

Someone said he is too short , well he won every header , very well played nathan

It’s an interesting one with Ake - he’s conventionally short for a CB at 5ft 11, but he’s difficult to knock off the ball given his lower centre of gravity, and is better in the air than most of our back four - so his size really doesn’t impact his game.

A really good example of a player who’s worked at his weaknesses until they become a strength.

I wonder where his performances leave Zinchenko this summer.

I wonder where his performances leave Zinchenko this summer.

Zinchy would be playing if it wasnt for the war and will be back against certain teams as they all are picked dependant on the game
