Aymeric Laporte

I wonder if they had to pay 59 million for a defender, Than why didnt they go for van dijk for 75 million? Van dijk is a better defeendr and has premier league experience as well.

This means we can let Mangala join Utd for 50m and 500,000 a week wages

Best part is? Him and stones are exactly the same age. Stones is 1 day older. 1 is right footed the other is left footed. Both are the same height. They like long lost English-French twins haha. Can pair up for a good decade and anchor our defence.

except aymeric doesn't know english but at least Stones knows 'some' spanish haha

Love to say I’d seen him play a lot, but I haven’t. If Pep wants him, that’s good enough for me.

If it goes through it will really help our chances in the CL, pep wants to play 3 cbs against the big teams and this will allow him to do it, with Mendy coming back in a few months we will be set

told my missus about this and her reaction was to sing Laporte to 'that's amore'....ha. Defo sumat in that.

"When he plays from the back, turns defence to attack, that's Laporte"

For those who missed it earlier and wonder why he's uncapped at senior level, he suffered the injury in what was supposed to be his last U21 game before him and Umiti were going to get called up. As we know Umtiti continued his form with Lyon and got his dream move. Laporte's injury came at a bad time for him and he's now overlooked, has nothing to do with form Deschamps is just stubborn and still makes terrible selection choices. What's also a bit funny about this move is reading Athletic Club fans reactions they what to used the money to buy Iñigo Martinez.
