Glad Chelsea didn't activate buyback on Ake

Money would be spent frivolously and unwisely on Ake, no better than any of our current options.
Frank wasn't keen on the idea of signing Ake either (Ornstein claims), unsurprisingly.
Blocks Ampadu who can/will develop into a much better player, from defence or midfield. Prioritise him

Make no mistake we do NEED a left-footed CB (currently have none) but Ake is definitely not the answer.

Kai havertz may play there at this rate

GK
LB
CB

Should be the order of priority, after Havertz has signed.

I'm sure there are some GK and LB options in the pipeline, while Havertz negotations is going on.

Good signing for City.

He is a good player and £40m is a fair price in this day, but I agree with you. Just not the type of buy we need right now at CB.

Think we need to sign top players to improve our 11 as we have a very good squad. Ake is a good player but I never saw him leading our back 4.

Same. We need a world class CB when the time comes to buy one, Ake's more of what we have (besides being left footed).

Need a top level Christensen replacement.

Well Ake would be a significant upgrade on AC at least and I imagine we would get 30m for AC so I am for it to facilitate the departure of AC.
