Fantastic news. Exactly the kind of gamble we should be taking.
Getting giddy at the prospect of having an actual right winger. Up the low sock dribbling toffees.
So Saints eventually blink first. You have to say, fair play to the negotiators for standing firm and getting a deal done (almost) on our terms. Fair play.
On Monday we had to play Garner out of position, had Tim Iroegbunam in the middle and Michael Keane at CB and if you’re David Moyes you’re probably acutely aware that if we get an injury during the game at Centre back, next up off the bench was...
If we had Nathan Ake on Monday, you can take your pick of 3 different positions he would have started in and been better than the options we had.
Stop trying to pick a fantasy starting 11 and realise that we need a quality squad so that we have...
Ake would immediately raise he standard of our defenders by a large margin. I find it hard to believe the number that don't want him but would welcome some completely untried young defender from abroad somewhere.
We currently have 2 right backs. Patterson and Coleman.
The cry arsing about a RB is becoming tiresome tbh.
Ake can play 3 positions easily. Would be an unreal signing and more sensible than some big std right back
Good grief. It’s almost like I’m shouting into the abyss at this point.
One last try, I guess.
THERE IS NO NEWS BECAUSE A SENIOR MANAGER TOLD EVERYONE TO SHUT THE [Poor language removed] UP.
That is all.
I think thats great value.
Doucoure cost us 11m last year, we replaced him with Grealish at 12m. Players arent just their fee, its their wages to. On both the books and PSR Grealish is the same cost as a 35m player getting paid 95k a week...
