Aymeric Laporte

[deano ou812]

You can see the headlines already - After being beaten to Sanchez by bitter rivals United City go with any Laporte in a storm.

Very good,I’m sure the media will somehow twist the facts of this deal and make it out to be worse than the rags signing a nearly 30yr old Sanchez...

Why we buying him then ?

Pep clearly sees something in his skill set that he wants and thinks will fit well. I'll gladly trust that.

That one guy from some tv program reporting this one deserves some credit. He was way ahead of everyone else. No?

 

[bluesince76]

A French defender, what could possibly go wrong?

He looked really good when we were last linked, my concern would be that's he's disappeared off the radar since then. But if we get him now,. He's got the rest of the season to adjust and a proper pre-season, so perfect for next year. Same with Fred and let's face it, neither will be cheaper come summer.

Excited as fuck mate. I'm with Bill he is pure class and was gutted when we missed out.

Bit concerned if he's that good why has he not played for the senior French team, still fairly young and plenty of competition I know but I would have thought by now he would have been capped .

 

[deano ou812]

BOOM..another class young player ..

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Are you mad.have you even watched him?

Have you forgiven him now bill ; )

I believe his release clause was €50m at the time.

So roughly an extra £10-12 mill this time ..still a cracking deal ..

Sounds good

 

[yankblue]

Wow, that moved fast.

Assuming this means Fred will have to wait until summer?

The problem is that France have Umtiti who is first-choice for Barca. His chance of being capped will be much bigger playing for us.

Wow, that moved fast.

Fuck NO! This deal has nothing to do with Fred.

Why do people always look for negatives instead of positives ??? If Pep thinks he`s worth it then so fucking what.I`ll always take Peps believes over than any fucking national coach !!

 

[Norwegian_Blue]

Well, tha

Wow, that moved fast.

Hopefully not. What a january it would be if we could secure both!

 

[Decepticon]

It's Six year contract now...

I think we'll see a back 3 in some of the bigger games when we have a fully fit defence imagine Stones Otamendi Laporte with Mendy and Walker as wingbacks and Ederson behind them
