6 | Nathan Ake - 2022/23

I wonder if Chelsea now regret not paying our asking price in the summer, given their subsequent splurge

They signed Cucerella instead for £68m , we definitely dodged a bullet there.

I like reading opp forums when we sign players from other PL clubs.

Reading Bournemouths they all loved him, wished him well and expected him to succeed.

Always a good sign

I always do the exact same. Ever since I read the Leicester forum when they were giggling about somehow getting £80m off United for Maguire while Jonny Evans, who United flogged in 2015, was their best CB.

Ake has been far and away our best and most consistent defender this season , and should be the first on the team sheet defensively , Ake and three others until the end of the season , and consolidate the back four.

New contract being offered!!

Well deserved, let’s hope he signs.

Stones and Laporte out tomorrow.

Him or Akanji or both to play.

He’s a bloody good LB. Not perfect, but we’ve had years of make-do LBs and he’s as good as any we have had.

Delph - Hard-working. Safe. Bit dodgy defending.
Zin - Great in possession. Susceptible to the ball in behind.
Ake - Average in possession. Hard-working and very solid defensively out wide.

I think he is a much better LB than CB.

I want to see him play left back every game for the rest of the season. No more pissing about, chopping and changing.

Top class again. Great signing.
