25 | Manuel Akanji - 2023/24

[Goater=Legend]

He’s a fine player but at our level he’s not as good as our other players. He’s been fine however given a choice Stones, Dias, Gvardiol, Ake and Walker are all better.

Which means we are beyond spoiled because he’s top class too.

Should be rotated with Walker and let Lewis stay as a midfielder

Now according to World Football Rumours he earns £180,000.

I think the consensus around the fanbase is that he’s our worst defender or that he should be 5th choice, but I believe if you asked Pep he’d give you a completely different answer. The amount of games he starts isn’t a coincidence

 

[TrentGrisham]

Arguably the most under-appreciated player on our team. His pace is invaluable.

Cracking finish. Not many could do that.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Very good today. Walker is unique and stones is critical to us but all our other defenders, Dias, akanji ake and gvardiol you can mix and match and the quality just doesn't drop.

 

[TonyM]

Back scoring extraordinaire

 

[red 2 hats]

For what we paid, an absolute bargain.

 

[M Gaudino]

I think he’s as good a defender as any we have. solid and fast.

personally i’d be quite happy to see us go back to the 4 centre backs and willy waver out of the team because Akanji is also rapid, is miles better on the ball and doesnt have 3 brain farts a season

Any news on the injury, that made him pull out of last night's game?
