That's simply not true, I gave a detailed breakdown of all the goals conceded in those 9 games weeks ago. Very few were defensive errors, it's just the same old lazy argument with absolutely no relation to the facts. Please feel free to point out the defensive errors, if memory serves me right there was 1-2, plus the two howlers from Ederson at Trafford which are goalkeeping errors.If we go with what we have got then We won’t win the title . Don’t forget we lost 9 games and the majority of them losses were down to defensive mistakes . Ake is a step in the right direction but we are still not there.

Can understand your feelings on stones but he has been absolutely shocking this season and he wasn’t great last season . We cannot go into a new season with John stones still at the back
It's a shame, before the injury in the fall of 2018 he was really good. Havent seen that side of him after that :/

That's fine thenBony was every bit as shit as I expected he would be.
Not joking at all. If the right player isn't available for the right price, we go with what we have got already. It's been the way for a number of years (Jorginho, Maguire, Laporte 1st time, Sanchez) and I don't see any reason to make me think things will change now.
You can’t possibly be serious if you believe the club would enter the next season with Stones, Otamendi and Fernandinho as CBs - AGAIN. Then I’m sorry you must have recently become of fan of this club. They will buy another centre back, no matter what. That’s how bad it is what Stones and Otamendi. I thought every City-fan knew this.
Is this the same Ake who has never kicked a ball for us now being the second best CB we have?
Somewhat premature prediction there bud
Not the slighest. It’s like saying CR7 in his prime coming to City wouldn’t be better than Mahrez until we see him kick the ball for us. Of course he would be better. Nathan Aké would never have been brought in if Pep didn’t think he was an obvious upgrade to Stones and Otamendi.
Very weird argument. It’s not that hard to realize talent before the player actually put on the jersey.

Aké is not enough. Kompany left last season and I still believe the club is looking at a proper replacement for him – a world class defender and leader, someone like Koulibaly. I see Aké as Stones replacement considering the homegrown quota. But now that Garcia wants out, maybe the dynamics changed a bit. But I’m 100% sure another CB is on his way in. Otamendi and Stones are done, they are not good enough anymore.
