Nathan Ake

That to me, makes it a worse. Surely, we don't buy players on that basis.

BTW. I believe he is a good player and a good improvement on both Stones and Ota.

Not every player has to be a "worldie" , players like Zabba have shown that.

We need our squad players to be ready at all times to come in and do a "job". Otta and Stones have gone MIA when required and are not fit for purpose.

I never said that. You purport him not good enough, to which I said, if that is correct why would we buy him. Your reply was because he's a good guy and seldom injured. Those attributes do not make him good enough, or am I missing something?

Fact over fiction, how successful business is run ;)

You go and celebrate our 1 year ban, great business strategy to accept it.

Enjoy paying 10 K for your next used punto fella because you have morals hahaha.

I personally don't think he is good enough, but I completely understand why the club would want him as a squad addition.

Fair enough, we will just have to agree to disagree and leave it there

I think for £25-£30m its 100% worth a punt

Otamendi is no longer that 3rd man in & can only see him possibly going back to Spain on a free all paid up?
He could even be part of the Torres deal?

Stones is the 1 I'm not sure about, I think Pep is saying go find another club or show me why you should be here

Just think with Garcia playing 6 out of 10 & let's be honest if he wasn't concussed he would have played more then he is ahead of both Nico & Stones.

Bring in Ake then Nico is gone but bring in Koulabily then Stones will be gone

I think we’ll push Stones to Arsenal - even on loan with a commitment to buy.

Stones will not be short of interest, he will be in 4 way club fight, Arsenal, Newcastle, Everton, Spurs he wont be short of suitors

You'd be able to afford a couple if you had the bollocks to fight a Champions League ban rather than seeing a 1 year ban as a pleasing result.

How fucking dare you, someone ban this ****.
Ps... I'm joking, I know you didn't mean it like that.
