25 | Manuel Akanji - 2022/23 Performances

[MCFC1993]

In the middle of the season I thought he was too passive, a bit too lackadaisical.

He's been phenomenal during this unbeaten run.

 

[Legal Alien]

He played really well tonight, i guess Pep does know what he's doing.

Again tonight, take a bow Manuel!

 

[WallyA]

His improvement is startling, should never doubt Pep improving a player this quickly, expected longer.

 

[kun]

He was faultless today.
Brilliant performance.
Bargain.

 

[kippax123]

Absolutely brilliant tonight.

 

[mancityscot]

Defo seems to perform better against the smaller pacy wingers. He’s a speedy guy himself, and has the size and strength to compete and outmuscle them.

 

[WestGorton]

His best game for City. Absolutely brilliant.

 

[Shaffer92]

What a performance. MOTM outside of KDB and Haaland for me.

 

[oldius]

Oh my, he was good.

 

[Shaffer92]

In the middle of the season I thought he was too passive, a bit too lackadaisical.

He's been phenomenal during this unbeaten run.

That's my only knock on him as well.

He's got all of the physical tools to be very, very good. I just hope some of Dias's mentality rubs off on him.

 

[Keeper!]

Magnificent, what a great signing this lad has become, from day one top quality, no fuss, top footballer.

 

[FantasyIreland]

You cannot give the MOTM to anyone other than Kev,but this lad was imperious.

People were concerned,myslef included,about the left back slot......the best compliment is that we didn't once miss Ake.

A better pound for pound signing i cannot think.

 

[Bluey91]

Like most of us, I was really worried when Ake.went down with his hammy. On this showing, I'm that bit more confident for the Madrid games in particular, especially as it allows Kyle to go man to man on Vinicious Jr.

 

[blue cigar]

He's seen off some serious wi.gers in recent games, some were having a go at him, I hope they now see his value and attributes. He will never be a tiki taki type but he's quick and strong and we don't miss zinchenko or cancelo.

 

[bluemystery]

Has to be the best signing of the season apart from Haaland.

One of the best signings we've ever made, similar to Zinchenko from Moscow.

 

[Akira]

One of his best performance in a City shirt IMO, and that's playing as a left back. Barely gave Saka a sniff and bullied him physically.

 

[Gundoggin]

Said it many times this season how this player fitted straight in from the word go . Absolute class !

 

[JDV]

You cannot give the MOTM to anyone other than Kev,but this lad was imperious.

People were concerned,myslef included,about the left back slot......the best compliment is that we didn't once miss Ake.

A better pound for pound signing i cannot think.

Akanji and Alvarez would both be in that category. $30mill for both!? Insane value

 

[FantasyIreland]

Akanji and Alvarez would both be in that category. $30mill for both!? Insane value

Alvarez is a bargain too,but Akanji has definitely been the more crucial signing of the two so far.

Brilliant last night
