Nathan Ake

£41 mill for a backup player... I call bullshit unless some of it is in Add-ons!

 

[Great Kompany]

A bit expensive for a third choice!
Hopefully a good amount is in the form of add ons
After the Ferran torres masterclass every other player looks expensive :D

City always seem to allow “prem” clubs to announce the fee first. Definitely addons

TBH guys I'm happy we may be paying a bit more as it means we will get the player.

How many times have we been stung dilly dally about with fees?

Txiki doesn’t muck around. I think Ake will work very well under Pep.

People will complain about the fee being a bit too high, but I'd ask those people if, with next season starting in 6 weeks, would you rather spend 2/3 weeks negotiating a £30-35m fee, or get Aké sorted, done, at the club in training sessions integrating into the side from Monday?

He deleted this tweet , which would suggest , we may not be getting koulibaly

Someone sent me a message on Twitter early this morning saying City had had a 40m bid accepted. Said they knew someone who worked for the club. Ignored it cos there's so much of this going round. Guess they were right!

If it was from a bloke called Max then I might have a new favourite poster.

'deal worth 41m'. hoping that figure includes add ons

True that.. Maybe it's just me.. But considering he counts as homegrown I guess it's a good deal.. Maybe? £41 just seems excessive in the market these days and considering we're buying from a relegated team.
