6 | Nathan Ake - 2024/25

Can't forget my boy. Hope he gets some playing time soon to get him up to speed. Love the fact that he's been such a great success with us.

There’s no need to rush him back, after his busy summer.

Joško, Rúben and Manu are all playing well.

Great to see him back on Saturday. Another top player.

I’m a big fan of Nathan.

He’s a very consistent defender. Him and Joško have the left side of our defence covered.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Much as Akanji had a good season, and Gvardiol too, we always seem a bit more comfortable with Ake in defence on the counter. He has saved us a few embarrassing breakaway goals from the opposition, and even this season there have been two, and a few near misses.

Yeah I think Pep's aiming for his peak in midseason.. not wanting another hamstring problem.

He's the best 1v1 defender we have. He also rarely makes mistakes or oopsies whilst Gvardiol makes them almost every game. Gvardiol is much better in possesion though.

 

[Utrecht]

Injured. Looks pretty bad.

Injured. Looks pretty bad.

Getting stretchered off. Doesn't look great.

If that is his hamstring, it’ll be the eighth time he’ll have been sidelined with a hamstring injury.
