Great article, including personal playing stats via graphics.

Manuel Akanji is Man City’s bargain buy and now Pep Guardiola’s intelligent problem-solver at right-back

As Pep Guardiola explains, Manuel Akanji has been better than even Manchester City expected and solves a big problem for the champions; analysing the impact of the other summer signing from Borussia Dortmund after starring against Southampton

[Tricky_Trev]

Our defence now is literally Akanji & Cancelo and two others. And that is a huge credit to him.

Yet another rock solid cool as custard 90 minutes.

Has he improved with age,or was he always this awesome?

He has been this awesome as long as I have known him (going on 6 weeks now)

I’d like to see him under the cosh a little bit before crowning him the next Kompany. Anfield should be a good test.

I hope we don’t see any of our players under the cosh at that shit hole

I think we’ve ended Stones trying to be a right back today.

I always thought JS did very well at RB when called upon.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

I always thought JS did very well at RB when called upon.

He did a job. He never filled me with confidence there though.

I used to be able to do that, still can but a fair bit slower these days. The secret is breaking the maths down, as an example the one showed:

26 x 77

20 x 77 = 1540
Plus 6 x 70 = 420
Plus 6 x 7 = 42
Total 2002

Or

26 x 75 which is three quarters of 2600, (26 x 100) 1950 (half the 2600, 1300 plus half the 1300, 650) then 2 x 26.

Plenty of ways to do it, whatever you’re comfortable with, mostly on mobile phone calculators these days.

I must point out I’m no maths genius, just spent 10 years manually settling bets in my younger days which involved breaking down fractions so it was second nature.
