If only!

He will end up at one of the big boys!

He's quality, if he came to Wolves he'd be first choice 100%. Wouldn't be cheap though!

He was superb yesterday - and needed to be. The big boys are rumoured to be looking at him but it would be great to snaffle him from that poxy club, he'd cost a few quid though!

He's OK. I think we can do better especially for the money they'd want. Chelsea have a buy back clause on him and he cost Bournemouth over 25m

I was impressed with him over both games.
It seemed as if he made 4 or 5 headed clearances in the first ten minutes .
He would probably cost too much when our priorities lie elsewhere.

Thought he was really good both times we've played them. Would be good to have in the squad can play lwb/CB so would be good cover for us next season or maybe even an upgrade on Bennett. I really like Bennett but Ake would be a quality addition.
I thought exactly this during the game.

He would be a perfect upgrade on Bennett but is surely (way) out of reach.

I think we are about to be just that !
Subsequently if he’s available he could well be a target.

To Ake we are a sideways step.

Regardless of us thinking otherwise and knowing what we are aiming for ... To an outsider like Ake all we are is a side 6 points above his current team in the league that maybe could pay him a bit more money.

We aren't about to become one of the big boys next season ... It will be a good 3 or 4 years before we will even be close to challenging.

How can you possible know thats how he thinks? Its pure guesswork.

No chance, but what a player. If he hadn't played, then not even the ref could have stopped us from winning yesterday.

After Van Dijk, he’s the best defender I’ve seen against us this season.

Trying to think of a team from players that have impressed against us this year.

Fabianski
Wan-Bissaka, Van Dijk, Ake, Chilwell
Pogba, Doucoure, Billing
Salah, Jesus, Hazard

Looks a seriously good player.

I'd say he looks every bit as good as maquire , and what did Utd offer for him? £60, £70 M ??

We will need to find the 21 year old Portuguese version that no one has heard of!!...

After watching him yesterday I would love him to come here, but has already been said it would be a sideways step and I am sure a proper ;) club will be in for him..

Agreed Ake is quality, always rated him but unfortunately buying ANY quality established prem player is going to cost an absolute fortune. I don’t think we will be in the position to do that for a few years. I think we have to find young gems or the odd quality foreign player for now.

I really rate Ake, and as such watched him really closely when we played at home. He had a stinker with Raul running him ragged. Good player, but he didn't have a good game against us first time round. Just slightly better than Mings on that occasion.

I didn't think Pogba was that great against us? (He would be in my team of the year however)

Alisson
Wan- Bissaka, Van Dijk, Ake,
Loftus-Cheek, Doucoure,
Zaha, Salah, Hazard,

Not sure who may last 2 would be

As others have said, he’ll be at one of the big clubs (in Europe, not necessarily here in England) next season or 2. Just hoping Liver**** don’t sign him, because then the title will be theirs.

Do you really think Pogba impressed against us, or is it his reputation, think he got blame for our equaliser and was average on the day.
One other player i was impressed with was Mooy in an average Hudds team ran us all over the field.

Excellent player. Confident we can get someone like him but he will be out of reach at present.

Ok ??

I take it you didn't watch either games against them this season or any game he's played in ??

I thought Pogba was head and shoulders above any United player on the day against us.

Mooy was excellent too and can’t believe I forgot David Silva.

Ake was the man of the match yesterday. I'd love him in our side, but as others have stated it'd be a push to get him to come here.
Saying that. That's the level we need to be looking at to improve this current team. We're not going to be buying squad players going forward, so anyone that comes in needs to be better than what we have already.
I think our days of spending £10-£15 million on a player are gone.

Perfect player to replace Bennet. Good defender and started life as a cdm so can play aswell.

For the money we'd have to spend to get him, I think we'd get better elsewhere.
