True but Stones had an a effort not long before his that was even worse.

My player of the season. Been absolutely immense all year even when others around him have dropped standards. Deserved to start the Cup Final undoubtedly. He was signed as a backup player and made himself undroppable and the best defender at the club. Well done Manu you should be very proud of your performances this season.

I love Akanji and think he’s been tremendous. And maybe his page isn’t the place to say this, but I don’t like how his price and the fact he didn’t play yesterday have become a stick for people to beat the rest of our “overpriced, slow, stupid, error prone” defenders. No one has had a perfect season, even Akanji. I think most of our defenders had a period of time this season where you could make a case for them being the “best.” I do think Akanji had more of those periods. But the fact so many others (and I probably shouldn’t have responded to your post, because I’m not saying this is what you’re doing) have written off the rest of them is frustrating.My player of the season.

So much potential. Has the lot, just needs to be more aggressive, but could be a big player for us next season
He's just had a magnificent season, our best defender by a long, long way.So much potential. Has the lot, just needs to be more aggressive, but could be a big player for us next season

Doesn't need to be aggressive. It's his calmness that makes him the player he is.So much potential. Has the lot, just needs to be more aggressive, but could be a big player for us next season

This, all day long.

I was just thinking while he was playing so well against Italy, who in God's name was Manu Akanji? I mean, how many of us had even so much as heard of him when he arrived? In terms of value for money, an astonishing signing. Perhaps, in those terms, the best of the last ten years.
Mind you, Nate Aké is not far behind him in terms of value for money.
