I'm pretty sure I've seen that car around Leicester before, I work in the motor trade and have a useless, strange talent for remembering reg numbers Plus it's a 2015 land rover with 104000 miles on it, not exactly a footballers car

Mark_w Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 I'd love it if we signed him, but can't see it happening at all.
Crazy Kop Corner Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 Bournemouth were crap when we played them at home last season but Ake was fantastic - It felt as though it was a one man resistance at one point. He is definately the best of the defenders we appear to be comtemplating and at 24 years of age he absolutely fits our team profile. Gerrimmin
AjcW Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 He’s spent a couple of years playing for a manager who doesn’t know the first thing about defending, as part of one of the worst defences I’ve seen in recent prem history. He might well be good individually but id rather go for Tarkowski who has been learning from a great defensive coach in a team that doesn’t concede many.

But it's clear that our game plan under Rodgers is not based on defending. Pre season has shown us that we'll press high and try to win games by out scoring the opposition, so we'll need a defender who's comfortable with the ball at his feet, who can bring the ball out of defense and push the opposition midfield back
Dave Fishwick Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 we're losing a massive presence in Maguire. Ake couldn't dream of replacing that kind of physical presence
Tielemans63 Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 I agree with the consensus that he's the best option. However, Bournemouth don't need the money so I'd bet he'd cost us north of £60m. Not saying we shouldn't pay that, more that we will end up being squeezed this late on in the window.
NewquayFox Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 Gray & £30 million would be good business, why not double it and get Fraser in as well....

Burnley conceded 68 goals last season, Bournemouth only conceded 2 more at 70.

You lost me when you said Sky Sports News. ?
Jimbo Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 Tarkowski is a good old fashioned stopper. We don't need a stopper, we have one in Morgan.
sdb Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 £60m plus any 2 of Gray/Ghezzal/Amartey/James for Ake and Fraser?? They'd do alright out of that! ?

st albans fox Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 So this is ‘hot’ cos someone in Leicester has an old RR with a number plate that is like a player’s name ????

LinekersApples Posted 4 August 2019 Posted 4 August 2019 Totally unrelated, but the agent of Jamie Vardy, Andy King, Harvey Barnes and Marty James is due over for a chat this afternoon
