The only thing he is missing at the moment is the captain's armband, but it will be a matter of time if he keeps this up.

I am just perplex we wasted all this time with Koulibaly and Kounde and fuck knows who.
Early days, but he looks like a beast.

Definition of MINT so far.

Hope he keeps this up. With Laporte and even Ake could turn a weakness of ours into a strength.

As the consensus have noted, he looks a proper old fashioned defender who leads well. Impressed so far

He looked better with Ake than he looked with Laporte and that worried me a bit.
Hope he get the form he had two seasons ago

All that he needs now is to be Mase's favorite and we can all agree we have a player.

True mate. Good thing is Ake is doing as I expected and also showing his qualities.

Ake rarely makes mistakes which has been such a huge problem for us and just having solid defending with good technical ability is what we needed so badly.

With Laporte, Ake and Walker, this could be the start of a beautiful relationship.

I don’t want to get too carried away, but seeing a proper defender in at cb for us got me a little excited. God we’ve had some poor runs out of a few recently.
Tracking back is overrated.
