Made the Opta statistical team of the season with some impressive numbers: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65740006

Akanji is exceptional on the ball, completing 93.3% of his passes, which is the best pass accuracy of any of the 262 players who have attempted at least 500 this season. Between his first (17 September) and final appearances (21 May) this season, only Lewis Dunk and team-mate Rodri completed more passes than Akanji (1,886), while only Dunk had more ball carries than he did (601), with Akanji ranking third for ball carry distance (6,263m) and second for ball carry progression (3,531m) in that time.
 
Love the fact that this guy has done so well. Every Premier League team could have afforded his transfer fee so great scouting on City's part to get such a bargain - more like this please

Considering his education it wasn’t a gamble in any stretch of the imagination; he’s merely been fine tuned by a coach who needs no more adulation for his ability to polish rough diamonds….

Pep seems to have been showered with what I’d surmise we knew 12 months in him being here, that we’re watching greatness in real time and will probably be in the mix as the best ever when done…. And he’s Man City manager lol, I mean what the fuck, blessed isn’t the word!
 
Outstanding. Didn't allow anyone to run around him. Fernandez tried to beat him on a few occasions and had nothing
