Is that the 22-year old John Stones most thought was talented if not a little raw when we got very good money for him?
Or the 27-year old definitely is gash Nathan Ake being discussed here?

As I recall he got a quite a deal of fan criticism which helped him to say tara.
I think the 50million bid from City helped him to say tara.
Again, what on Earth has that got to do with someone wanting City to give us Ake for Jarrad Branthwaite? Where does us selling Stones 6 years ago come into this.
Struggling to see how your brain is wired here.

I have confidence on Brantwaite coming on unlike you.
Now where on earth is that rumour about swopping Ake for Branthwaite ?
Holy moly you've had an absolute mare grandpa.

was most likely the quadrupling of his wages, big sign on fee and the likelihood of winning trophies

No mate, just asked a simple question, but if it is too much for you pass on that.
No you just can't read. Waded into the middle of a discussion without knowing what it was.

Well true if you like but who or what is Ake. Must admit completely lost on that.
Maybe just refrain from commenting when you don’t know what people are talking about or know who famous international footballers are?
City are linked with Branthwaite
Someone said they can have him and we can have Nathan Ake
I called Ake gash (he is)

I think people confuse progression with progression being by loan as well.
Generally speaking players improve as they get to 25. Its not linear, and it's not in every case, but as a generisable it happens. So some will get better while out on loan. That doesnt automatically mean they get better because of a loan.
For me if Brainthwaite is serious he has to be looking to make himself first choice. We may even play 3 at the back. He now has to be looking to make himself first choice.

Thanks for the clarification, I was not aware of the rumour. For me we have to tell City to get lost
Yep, definitely agree with that. To be honest I wasn’t overly convinced by his performances this year and would advocate a loan so he can get games but I’m with you 100% that it isn’t always the best plan.
