Very good tonight. None of that running out of position for no reason like last week (but I’ll out that down to not playing left back for a long time for us).

His passing has improved so much! Looks v good at left back.

Solid tonight.

When we signed Ake for £45m to say the least i was underwhelmed , his first season was stop start and had injuries but i never really rated him , but what do i know ? He has been our best defender this season and with class players like Dias , Stones and Laporte that is really saying something.
He has become Mr.Reliable and has changed my opinion who i thought was an average centre back to a truly brilliant defender ,he isnt the quickest but his reading of the game and anticipation is second to none.

improved So much since his arrival. I would describe him as a safe pair of hands ( or feet)

 

[FantasyIreland]

Great game,MOTM contender.

 

[mosssideblue]

More than happy to bump this thread to say another very good game

 

[chris85mcfc]

Yep good game but sees far too much of the ball for my liking

Not a fault of his, but more a fundamental one within the team

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

Had a good game

Never let's the shit team performance impact his own personal performance. Solid and reliable once more and the only bit of speed in the entire defence without walker, can't ask for any more from him. Whether it's left back or centre back, he makes the team when he's fit.
