Otamendi 2.0

Otamendi 2.0

Basque Stones

best City CB in squad if it's true

Otamendi 2.0

anyone of you ever see him play? Laporte is nothing like Otamendi

€49.8M for a basically unproven centre back coming from a risky injury. Bad deal for City.

Yeah, he's even worse.

Overrated garbage

He's going to be a La Liga defender bust for City just like Otamendi.

>that price
Jewed by the basques.

Is up to an 88 for me on FIFA 16 just a few years in

>le I like this guy buy him man in charge of handling unlimited funds

this gon be good

City will have spent over £150m on their defence and it'll still be complete shit. Gotta say that's quite incredible.

>£39m
wew

This, 150m spent and their fullbacks are still Arselel rejects and old past it players

Does Fifa let you sign non-basque players for Athletic?

2012 - Javi Martínez to Bayern for €40M
2014 - Ander Herrera to United for €37M
2016 - Aymeric Laporte to City for €50M
2018 - ?

Literally never seen him play. He might have done against Barca last season but I didn't even bother

You can't help but get hyped whenever you see a youngster with so much playing time already

Can't wait till the Pep meme dies once and for all.

kek

Inaki Williams for 35 mil to lavorpel

The memes on here will be beautiful when he loses 1-0 to West Brom with 90% possession

Are City trying to buy an injured XI?

They'd be better using that transfer money to buy a soul instead

>Its another City buy a 50 million pound CB episode

City just can't stop buying centre halves, it's like they have an unholy obsession with that position.

>But we won possession

that's more than what manure paid for Martial (who's actually good).

Hopefully you guys realise that the current city center backs are Kompany, Otamendi, Mangala and Demichellis

Based Basque

They already have one

How to bilboa fans feel about sales? Its not like they can use that money to buy someone other than an established basque player. And the established ones usually arent with them for a reason.

He is injured
and they bought another injured player with Gundogan

Aguero and Kompany weren't enough for them?

>Laporte
>Basque

only his grandfather was somehow basque

Didnt he go through there youth camp?

Yep, but that does not make him Basque. Saying a person with such a name is Basque is like claiming that someone named Padraig O'Callahan is English.

I don't know anything about him but I presume he's good at playing out from the back to suit Poop's meme football.

Sandniggers keep inflating the market with these mediocre players

My understanding of there policy is that they incorporate players from the greater basque area, obviously a large portion of people living in that area are basque but not everyone is. Like iñaki williams who is clearly not of basque decent but was born in Bilbao.

Can't wait for Vardy in red to ruin him next season

Are West Brom the most forgettable BPL team?

What happened to Matija Nastasic?

In Bayonne yes, that doesn't make him Basque, you will find many people from Bayonne or Biarritz who aren't Basque at all. I bet its the same thing in the spanish part.

Bixente Lizarazu was a true basque. It's easy to spot them with their names.

replacing matip at shalke

I don't understand how City keep managing to piss away their money on shit every single summer without fail
If they had a brain they'd be dangerous

See
Again they seem to make exceptions with the youth academy players. I dont know what the policy is to get into the youth academy itself.

>another botched city signing
>man u implodes under mourinho
>liverpool still too much of a circus to finish higher than 4th
>chelsea rebuilding
>leicester destroyed
>arsenal

holy fuck spurs will win the leauge. nooooo fuck fuck fuck

>finish 3rd in a 2 horse race
Spurs have no chance, more chance of chelsea city arsenal united being relegated

>implying there won't be another meme team living the dream

This

No club should pay more than 20m for a CB. Ever.

10 years ago maybe but 35m is the max today, also clubs with lots of money always have to overpay

>yfw Southampton wins the eagle

Why don't they just buy italians for defense?

Is that supossed to be something bad? Otamendi is the best centreback in the league

Reminder that PSG have unironically paid 50 million sterling pounds for David Luiz

Like West Ham and Ogbonna?

Italians invariably spill their spaghetti once they leave Italy. Their defensive constructs work best in Serie (o)A(p) and don't translate very well to other leagues.

white mangala

>Buy CB for a shitload of money
>Players struggles on his first year
>Get rid of him
>Becomes a good player in another team

Everytime, when wil City learn

>that name
>white

PSG spent less than city for the defense and it's in a better shape

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyymeric Laportemaoo

learn the difference between euro and pounds

Does anyone have an actual source because this does not look "Official" at all.

not confirmed yet

so it's just another rumour then and definitely not official

>>>/trans/

>august 2014: spend 32m on a CB
>august 2015: spend 30m on another CB
>june 2016: spend 39m on another CB

literally who?

city need to stop buying bang average players

literally a FM transfer, Shitty buy him all the time in my games

>if I pay 1 billion for my defense it will surely be good

good goyim

playing in the EPL will grant him a spot in the french NT so he will never get mad at Deschamps and join Spain
why can't nice things ever happen?
