Will1981 Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 1 hour ago, Domsdad said: Would be very happy with this. Can cover at RB as well. Doubt it mate he is left footed and played a lot of games at left back, he would make a good left sided center back next to maguire though my only minor issue with him is he is only 5' 11" which is on the small side for a center back.

AKCJ Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 This is the most obvious bit of "Bournemouth are about to sign him but we'll add a couple of other teams in to increase the interest in the story" I've seen for a while.
Tuna Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Sometimes I get the feeling that teams are put in articles to beef them up. Leicester and Southampton could have easily been Stoke and Watford. If we were seriously interested we'd be getting him and not Bournemouth. Still, he would be a good signing for us if true and actually Bournemouth are beginning to annoy me by making shrewd signings that I wouldn't mind here!
SheppyFox Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Would be good, wonder though if he feels Bournemouth is easier as he already settled there.

Tbh it isn't rocket science, he's gone there, played football and clearly settled well within the team. Makes perfect sense to continue his development in an environment he's familiar with and likes. Taking our affection for LCFC out of the equation most of us would probably do the same if faced with the same situation.
Osavo Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Would be a great signing this. Left sided centre back too, which we don't currently have.

We've more chance of getting Sigurdsson... In other words.. No Chance!
DatfoxesKid23 Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 I doubt we will get him seeing as Bournemouth have apparently nearly completed the transfer get zouma instead
car1os Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 We've been interested in the past, hence why we're linked now. Would be a good signing but I suspect Bournemouth are front of the queue
FoxinNotts Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Controversial one here, but on the proviso that we don't let any other defenders leave, I'd be quite happy to go with what we've got, defensive wise this season (inc. Zieler out Jakupovic in).
foxes21 Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 I think Ake would make a CM. He is very good on the ball, reads the game well and is very energetic.

ARM1968 Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Don't want simply because his name is Nathan. I have a brother called Nathan and he's an utter bell-end!!
FrankieADZ Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 would be a very good buy for us, but i wouldnt be surprised if Southampton got him, since Chelsea are after VDV, and they could well get him less if they put Ake in the deal
Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Cherries in pole. But if we offer much bigger wages then perhaps that might swing it. He will want assurances about starting I'd imagine, as he won't want further bench warming all season.
lanefox Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Would be a quality signing, it would bring some much needed youth into our defence , potentially we could have one of the youngest starting 11 in the league
ROB-THE-BLUE Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Yeah defo be happy with Ake! If there's any truth in the rumour I really hope we have a good go at getting him.
NewquayFox Posted 26 June 2017 Posted 26 June 2017 Be cheap to get his name on the back of your new City shirt as well.....
