Nathan Ake

Well we can and 4 possibly 5 of them 6 seem likely to be gone very soon

Bernie won't go, Ake and Zinc are happy to stay, but also are worthy to play as first team regulars if not here then unfortunately somewhere else and can takena decent offer with the clubs blessing.

Personally I wouldn't begrudge them going as they deserve to be playing weekly not sitting in a bench

I wouldn't let eitber of them two leave until we secure a LB though

I agree, if Ake goes thrn more likely we find an experienced 4th choice who is cheap and happy to play less games

Denayers on a free transfer from OL ;-)

Denayer's been abused enough by us, lots of rumours about de ligit

Deneyer would be the match day threads dream and also I was being cheeky as he is a free, would never be a consideration by the club.

Don't see the point of buying De Ligt, would want to play regulary and the fee for the player that would still be 4th best when all are on form is a waste

Gail Platt? Who is that? Are there any pictures available that would jog my memory???

I've no idea how to spell his her name correctly, I can definitely spell Natalie Sawyer no problem at all though! Trust me mate you don't want to jog your memory with a "Gayle Platt" photo she would make a viagra tablet melt.

I'd rather we keep him if he can be convinced to stay. We wont be able to buy better for whatever Chelsea pay in this market IMO, they wont qualify for home grown and Pep will have to start again with another CB teaching him the system. The end of last season proved 3 CBs is not enough for City(amount of games, style of play) and that the academy lads aren't quite ready to be relied upon in the PL yet.

The only way it makes sense, is if he really wants out and it doesn't sound like he does.

If Ake does want to leave and I have not read any reports that he does then I am sure that Pep and the club will not stand in his way if the right offer comes along. Ake impressed last season and I hope he stays.
 
Unless we have someone else coming in, I just don't see us selling Ake.

Even with Stones, Dias and Laporte we have seen that it's not enough over a 60 game season - hopefully!

I think any replacement for Ake would be a similar player I.e. not De Ligt because he would want to be first choice.

Unless Ake is looking for a move (possible due to the WC) I just don't see why would even entertain the idea.

You said it yourself, Ake will leave possibly because WC. He wants to assure his spot on National Team for upcoming WC.

The price we pay having a whole squad good enough to be an Internationals for their respective national team, for lot of them having a regular spot in National team is more important than being benched in successful team like our for Euro and WC.

Think Doyle has more experience in “real games” than Mbete I would like Pep to have a look at him in preseason..

Have a mate who supports Sunderland and he was very impressed with Doyle last season. Lot of potential and definitely worth keeping an eye on.
