Aymeric Laporte

[Rammy Blue]

don't watch as much since he snubbed us to be honest. ddn't want it rubbing in my face lol. when I have watched him play he's impressed. please don't laugh but his timing in the tackle is the best I've seen since Bobby Moore. hope the injury haxn't took too much away. if not we have a bargain.

Good enough for me.

I've never seen the chap play before so can't make a judgement on his quality. I'm sure he'll work out great.

For anyone with any doubts, look at what Pep did to Jerome Boateng.

Mendy was awesome in Europe for Monaco and will be like a new signing when he is fit ,he also looked very good for us at the start of the season . Guardiola has been chasing Laporte for two years and wanted to make him his first signing ,so I'm guessing he is desperate for him and rates him highly and Stones was magnificent this season before injury . However the best bit they are all only around 23 .Young hungry and around for yeasts

It's surprising how many forget what a shit house he was.

Fucking predictive texting. You meant to say Yaks, didn't you?

Not having balls is a major limitation in a centre back but Guardiola made him look like Beckenbaur. If this chap has the minerals then I think Guardiola can make him the bedrock of his team.

Will we see 3 at the back more often with this lad here? Stones Ota Laporte?

I haven't forgotten. He's one of the many centre halves we invested in that didn't work out for whatever reason.

savic, nastasic, mangala, boateng

Still recall him pulling out of a 50:50 against a winger. At which point, you have to question how he'd do against a Premier League Troy Deeney type.

I used to think it was the gloves. I remember thinking what's a centre half doing with gloves and a fecking snood.

They're all at it now, though. Even Otamendi, who's a tough bastard, no questioning his minerals, unless he's diving about like a fanny after getting touched. Maybe it is the gloves/short sleeves/snood
