Nathan Ake

I am not so sure. If we buy cucurella and Zin stays I would expect us to go with what we have and utilise Phillips/Rodri and Walker as the 4th CB. We don’t need 4 CB.
Also cucurella has played cb for Brighton. In a three though, I'm not going to pretend to know loads about him. Just that he always looked defensively sound when I saw him for Brighton, and his all-round game stood out. So could fill in at cb for us.
 
Tuchel wants De Ligt and Ake according to Romano.

Instead of half options, better to focus on the replacement.
 
We don't need 4 CB's, we don't need Sterling replacement, we don't need a solid depth, because we have zero injury-prone players and the season is going to end in September. Laporte is not coming from injury and Stones is not injury-prone.

Very short memory that we have used Fernandinho as our CB in the end of the season because of the lack of options. Amazing defending against West Ham. Let's replicate this again and again ;)
 
What do you suggest we do about it?
Short memory, half options. Laporte has played with injury at the end of the season, Stones is injury prone, and zero of these half options are strong options. We are risking in the same way as in 19/20 and we have known what has happened. But yeah, we have signed Haaland, so right now we could sell 75% of our squad.

Fine, I get all that.

You said we were all accepting it.

We aren’t, but there’s not much we can do about it and Ake hasn’t even left yet!
