Aymeric Laporte

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Is it just me who thinks he's a younger version of Otamendi?

He needs coached by the best though mate? John terry was always rash at times but learnt with better coaches and playing with and against better players? He's young enough to be taught and learn from more experienced players like vinny

It's a problem area mate without question and hopefully we can find the right formula. I still think otamendi could be top class under pep

Don't think its' that much of a problem,the full backs are more of a problem and the main problem area is the midfield !

Only seen him a couple of times and that's when he's been sent off!!!


Btw we haven't had anyone sent off this season have we???

£40million for a player yet to be capped for France because he's behind the likes of Koscielny, Mathieu,Sakho & Mangala for a left sided CB spot. A central defender who at only 21 has 6 red cards already in his career, the premier league record is 8 ffs. I mean what about him makes him worth that much money? because he punts long balls up to Aduriz(at a 50% success rate) all game akin to Boateng occasionally does to Lewandowski/Muller? His overall passing is no better than Mangala's, when Bilbao play pressing teams his accuracy regularly dips under 70%, which for a CB is atrocious.

Will be another poor CB acquisition to add to Peps list - Pique being the exception. Chygrynskiy, Caceres, Benatia & Henrique have been his other signings so far, all rubbish.

remember when fernandinho couldn't get into the brazil side and was behind paulinho

Remember when Hart wasn't an England starter at 21, Silva barely started for Spain and Aguero became Argentina's number one forward.....Laporte will be no difficult. Also, Gundogan isn't a regular for Germany.

If it's a battle between us and barca not sure I like our chances.

Ric said that hes heard we have agreed personal terms with the player so and Txiki is negotiating with Bilbao.. that will do for me.

i dont imagine laporte being solid upon arrival. then it's up to fans not creaming him for it whether or not his development can take its course at city.

Again, we are paying too much for CBs.

The only players who deserve this amount of the money are the players who will you matches like Yaya,Aguero,Tevez, Silva, Hazard, Sanchez, Ozil,Pogba , Robben, Ribery...etc

Good luck getting a match winner for £40m on the current market. All those players would cost 50-80m with the exception of Ribery, Tevez, Yaya and Robben now, as they are all past it.
