25 | Manuel Akanji - 2022/23 Performances

[Banshee]

Simply excellent tonight, like he played there every week

 

[Chak19]

He looks better at FB than CB, right or left, never put a foot wrong and his passing was superb, brilliant lately.

 

[mancyank41]

I’m sometimes critical of Akanji but bloody hell he was brilliant tonight. Absolutely outstanding. What an astute signing. He has lapses now and then but for the most part he’s very solid.

After KDB and Erling, Akanji is MotM.

 

[MillisleBlue]

Where’d Saka go? Oh hang on, he’s in Manuel’s pocket.

 

[US47Blue]

Absolutely brilliant.

Just another signing that the “City have unlimited pockets” crowd will refuse to acknowledge as it doesn’t fit their agenda.

17mil for this guy is grand theft robbery.

 

[mosssideblue]

Absolutely brilliant tonight, as they all were

 

[Josh_D]

He’s not everyone’s cup of tea but he’s gone about his business and done wonderfully.

Anyone seen Saka?

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

I posted last week I suspected he'd play there ahead of Laporte. If he's able to play outside back on either side of the 3/4 to that level, he'll find himself getting a lot of game time over the next couple of years

 

[Haaland94]

Saka nowhere to be seen, take a bow, Manuel.

 

[hcblue95]

Was absolutely quality tonight.
