25 | Manuel Akanji - 2024/25

[decmancity]

Being fit or not doesn't change the character of him. I've said it for months on here, he's too weak and passive. He gets beaten regularly in the air and hates a duel against someone unless he can just his pace to take the ball off them.

Stick him at RB and try something else in the middle.

Back to his season one antics. Sloppy, indecisive and error prone.

He had two brilliant blocks in the second half yesterday.
Massive contribution in getting us a point.

I'd say RB would be his position but the lack of fit centre halves is forcing Peps hand.
You are correct about him in the air and he does lose his fair share of those battles particularly with aggressive centre forwards.
Not sure how this is going to be resolved before the end of this season.
