Nathan Ake

Recommended Posts

Ake has an absurdly high valuation for the same reason we've sold Maguire for £85m - Bournemouth are well run, they don't want to sell and probably don't need the money. That's not our fault, this is the world the big clubs and the Premier League have created.

That's fair enough, more then entitled to demand that. 

Exactly.

 

We just bent Man United over for 85 million quid. Everyone will claim that their defender is worth that sort of money now. If we want a decent replacement for a good price then we need to go abroad. The likes of Ake, Tarkowski and Dunk will all be over 50m.

Best chance we have is a foreign signing, but then it's a case of what's the point? They come with the same "are they up to it" tag as Benkovic and Soyuncu. 

 

Are there any other free transfers floating about other than Cahill?

Surely if Rogers has always felt we need a replacement given the Maguire saga has been going on so long we have lined someone up and agreed a fee in advance?  We are going to get fleeced if not.

We never bothered doing that when we sold Mahrez after knowing he was leaving for well over a year and still paying the price now.

I can't believe the cheek of Bournemouth.  Who the hell do they think they are????

 

Do they not know about the football pyramid and where they sit? We should offer 40m and they should be grateful that a far superior club like ours is willing to do business with them!

 

Ake isn't worth 75m.

 

:ph34r:

Oh no! 

The Man Utd money is infected! 

Entitlement is spreading!!!

As expected - I thought we did expectational to get the price as high as we did for Maguire. 

 

However, if we have actual plans to replace him we were fools not to have something agreed in principle prior to Maguire's departure. 

 

Personally I don't have an issue with giving the Soyuncu and Benkovic six months to prove themselves.

Well done to the club for sanctioning an £80m sale in the final week of the window without lining up a replacement first. Genius.

you know this for certain or just because Sky are telling you this. Calm down jesus, if we go into the season as we are we have enough to challenge.

I think we have enough already to cope until January, would like to see us get this attacking mid/winger and wait it out until January.

 

Confident that Soyuncu or Benkovic will be fine, and if not we do have Morgan as a more than capable back up.

The game commences...

 

Bournemouth come out with a big figure... the week rolls on - the player thinks he'd like to work with Brendan Rogers.

 

The media make out like we only have the Maguire money to spend so we are short at least ten million.

 

Wednesday comes and we sign a new CB an uninspiring CM as cover and no winger.

 

FT members commit mass suicide due to hope and rope. (Optional)

 

Season starts, we finish 9th after talking about what we could have achieved with a £50 million quid winger.

Not too late to take one of Man Utd's as a make weight in the Maguire deal, just as cover, they offered a few.

 

It would lessen Hull's cut too.
