Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Honesty would take recently released Zagadou over ake. Guess what he is left footed as well 5 minutes ago, Tomo said: Is Kimpembe actually that much better or this another "Reguillon is better than Chilwell" moment. I'll be disappointed if he's over 35m and/or our big defensive signing but he's certainly not as bad as being made out. Rebuilding and chilly were both decent options kimpembe and ake are both unterwhelming but at least the Frenchman is younger, more experienced at top level and on his best day looks like a really good defender. Ake is just at a consistently poor average. Bournemouth was his level at best, should have stayed there bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artandur 939 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) Tbh i haven't really watched Ake since he's left us, but according to City fans he was really good last season and they want him to stay. So i'm just hoping he'll be able to surprise us. And if not that'll just mean more opportunities for Colwill. The price tag seems excessive though, considering the amount of football he has played in the last years.

Clockwork 1,794 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 All the comments from City that wants to keep him are from the perspective of being 4th choice CB and backup LB. If we are signing him as a sub, okay whatever I am on board even though the money is a lot. Blue Armour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People want us to integrate Colwill and have him develop, yet at the same time want a players like Kimpembe or Gvardiol who would both start the majority of the matches. Ake is a good squad player to have and it will allow Colwill to easily displace him should Colwill fulfill his potential. DDA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude sucks and Tommy can't make miracles with him. Can't wait for his partner Kounde next week to join as well, amazing backline. I never said he was brilliant or shite haha I just think this forum I going to explode when he signs lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is still exactly that same, extremely unremarkable player who left us. That’s the problem. 0 development in his entire senior career. If he was still 21 he would be a promising player but he is fkin 27 … still the same inconsistent touch still exactly as tiny still almost never makes a successful tackle or interception still decent but not special passing still average in the air scores the occasional tap in from a corner every 50 games probably the most boring pl cb there is bigbluewillie and Blue Armour 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
