ESPN FC’s Stewart Robson and Craig Burley disagree over the credentials of Manchester City target Nathan Ake. An enthused Robson insists Ake would be a ‘magnificent’ addition to Pep Guardiola’s defence while Burley thinks it’d be a ‘risk’ signing the Dutchman as he still hasn’t proven himself at the highest level.

can city play him in the champions league this year???
ESPN on Ake: "Big Question Mark"
Also ESPN on Ake: "Magnificient Signing"
Is it a coincidence that he's Dutch? As our main rival for in the prem has a Dutch cb (vvd).. just a thought?? City Fan*
I don't like the fact that City has not sealed this and the Ferran deal as yet. We're always wasting time the past few windows. We need to sign a direct Kompany replacement asap
Nathan Ake Bench warmer at another money power showing of Club Manchester city,
Ffs mate 🤦🏾♂️
60% of the time these pundits are wrong all the time
He is just another John Stones ; looks good in teams like Everton & Bournemouth but gets easily exposed in the big teams
Magnificent?! If United were signing him yed be mocking this no end biased as anything
I think Ake just deserves to be in the top flight in general
50m Stones, Otemendi 35m, Laporte 60m, Cancelo 50m, Walker 50m, Mendy 50m – City are JOKERS. And Burley has the audacity to criticize Maguire!? Laughable
Ake is a magnificent signing for City but Sancho would hardly improve United according to ESPN
Look whose talking about football….OMG is that Craig ??? No wonder he did not say now that MAN UTD is 37 points away … LMAO
yeah everyone knows Oil Well is very deep 😀 😀
I'm a Manchester United fan but I would anyday add Nathan Ake in our defence. His a very good PL defender. Him and Lindelof/Maguire would work better than the current pairing of Lindeflof and Maguire.
see the difference in report between united signing sancho and city getting ake lol burley just needs to be kicked off espn honestly he gives nothing and makes them look like amatures.
If Manchester United signed him all of these guys would be on full ridicule mode. These guys are a joke.
Ake is fast, has a good tackle and is very good on the ball. And not that bad in the air either. So he definitely helps and is an above average defender. Don't know what some of these pundits are up to.
Nathan ake has made 0 errors leading to goal since he started playing for Bournemouth
The espn is so bad for football aha
Ake is better than all other defenders that City has except for Laporte. $40 mil is nothing for City. They just got away with cheating the system.
It would be so interesting to see Ake play for City. He would suddenly find himself playing with great players and in a team playing total football dominating possession. It would be so so different to the situation he faced playing for Bournemouth.
No he's not!!!!!!! Come on.. this what the english media does… i'd take an aging city back line instead of paying 40mil for Nathan Ake…
first league at Santiago bernebau they said , hater said and idiot said Man City will lost to Real Madrid and then Man city win 2-1.. Now still Bloodyfool said Man city will lost in second league. So many many dog hate Man city to win UCL.. hahahahaa . Only REFEREE AND BOOKIE can stop city.. Man city play with PRIDE !!
Why does this guy get interviewed Lol Everything he says turns out to be the opposite 💀💀💀😂😂
If manchester united was gonna sign ake Craig burley would say ake was terrible
If Man utd had signed him, Ake would have been a below average player, and everyone would have reminded us that he just got relegated with Bournemouth
Breaking news, abu dhabii’s light blue shell company have overpaid for another central defender.
Had united bough him, these so called "pundits" would have undermined him or questioned united's transfer plan!
Ake is really underrated
He is better than maguire
