This man called Akanji

By RoadmanFifaPlayer, 24-03-2020

So i used Akanji with shadow and anchor. He's in my backline paired up with Alphonso Davies on LB and Schär on CB (soon to get Maldini). I can easily say that shadow is the best chem style for him. His aggression is still very strong and his defending is insane. He wins almost every tackle and is super fast with the shadow. I've had some trouble with defenders tackling from behind when the attacker goes past you but Akanji wins the tackle almost every time. If u pair him with Schar or another CB with good speed, passing, and dribbling you can play them a little higher up the court as akanji and schar both are super fast and will stick to your man almost never letting them through. The only problem i see is his balance. He is a little bit slow to recover from bad tackles so you have to be careful for that but his acceleration helps him if he needs to hunt an attacker.

Speed with shadow becuase he needs acceleration boost (my opinion)

Aggression and strength

defending all around

long and short range passing

size on the court

defensive tracking except to when it comes to crosses

Balance

defensive commitment and tracking when short crosses is played in the box

Akanji? A cheap Ferdinand?

At the start of the new FIFA cycle, everyone was hyping up the Swiss triangle. Akanji was on everone's radar at the start of the game. After some trading, I decided to make a Bundesliga team with him in my defense and OH MY GOD. How good is he? I don't even know where to start. Heading maybe? I scored 3 corners since the start of FIFA. Little guess who scored them all? Indeed, Big Manuel. He feels also pretty quick. With 70...

Manuel Akanji

Best CB in game

This guy was the only one who fit in my squad ( I had Schar player moments) and he is such a beast. His pace cannot be faulted and I must say only the likes of Mbappe could outpace him but Akanji would normally come in with a slide tackle to dispossess him at the last moment. His strength was matched by no-one whilst his defending was also on point. His height let him tower above everyone and he has scored plenty of goals f...
