6 | Nathan Ake - 2024/25

Where's this repeat injury talk coming from? Is it simply because he was subbed? He didn't look injured to me when he walked right by me and around the pitch, I assumed that was pep just limiting his time to hold back the next injury as long as possible, especially with another game just days away.

He's the best pure defender at the club and the most reliable when he's fit he'd be starting every single game if he was able to. If we are able to field a back 4 of akanji, dias, ake, gvardiol we'll be in a much better shape.

I certainly hope so, but the problem is he was subbed off in the 85th minute, if Pep was trying to limit his time surely he would've been subbed earlier, I guess we'll know in the next few games, let's hope for the best.

Pep said he wasn't injured in his presser afterwards. He was protecting him. People probably need to get the facts right before spouting the usual hyper boil shit

He was limping / moving gingerly just after he overhit a long ball. Hopefully just a precaution - we’re a much better team with him in it.

Best defender at the club for me, shame he can’t stay fit. Thought he held that back 4 together today as well as anyone could with Gvardiol playing suicide passes every 15 minutes.

Shush, Gvardiol is a world class defender apparently.

Ake and Dias are the best out and out defenders we have.

I hope he’s not injured but he wasn’t moving at all freely in the few minutes before he went off. Hopefully was just feeling tight and came off before anything happened.
