Nathan Ake

is this what it feels like to be on the other end of the "you signed Phil Jones, we signed Aguero" chants if one of our rivals is signing Havertz in the same timeframe?

Always like Ake, only reservation is he's a little short for a CB

 

[hihosilva]

He would be classed as home grown which is a bonus.

Good player.

Type of player we need to bolster the squad he can play in a couple of positions too.

I rate him, looked good everytime i’ve watched bournemouth, i’d be happy if we signed him, step up in quality from otamendi & prob stones as well

 

[bluemoon32]

Good player

No, if we don’t sign Koulibaly we’ll sign another centre back to play on the right. Ake wouldn’t be bought with any intention of being played as a right sided partner for Laporte. Again its obvious.

If we don’t sign Koulibaly we will be in the shit , I am presuming we are as Ake is an average player who will not be a regular , may as well keep stones & Garcia as back up , don’t see the point .

Ake would allow Mendy to play more freely higher up while help covering against the counter attack. I think Ake can with Laporte even if Laporte is left footed because it would be more like a back 3 with Walker dropping back as well.
