Disappointing....

By xxcaneloxx, 22-11-2020

This is my first review, im leaving a review because of my bad experience with this card. I got him untradeable and I used him for fut champs and maybe that's why he performed bad because of the horrible gameplay. However this Akanji card on this game for some reason can't win tackles, he'll touch the ball and maybe it slows down the opposing player but it's so easy for players to get passed him. It's like animation of his tackles aren't aggressive at all or accurate. The most infuriating part about this card though is that he got out-bodied multiple times by players like Ben Yedder, Dembele, Lucas, etc... He gave away so many goals for me, I was so close to discarding him........There's definitely a flaw in the animation or build of this player because Kounde plays miles better and you can argue Akanji has the better looking card. He does feel fast and he can catch up to players but so can Insigne....... prolly wouldve done a better job tbh. Lastly, he was out of position a lot but that doesn't really matter because he's the epitome of the squeaky toy sound effect, the other player will get passed him one way or the other.

I feel like ea reallly want us to use the meta players like varane and gomez, and it sucks because as we all know every team is almost the same with varane, gomez, dembele, mbappe, neymar, kante etc...I really wanted to like this card because I used him last year and he was a beast, also because he's untradeable for me. Hopefully he gets an upgrade and plays better but for now that he's an 82, stay away.

Manuel Akanji

BIG defender

I'm sorry if my english isn't perfect throughout this review, i'm Dutch myself.Let's start this review on this beauty of a card. I'm really enjoying all the bundesliga cards this year, especially at the back. I saw the two reviews on this card both saying he was a disappointment, well i can tell you he is not. He is a rock at the back. He is very strong and his tackles are phenomonal. His...

¿BEST CB IN BUNDESLIGA?

Hi guys, i did this review on my yt channel (Luiselme) so if u want a more visual review u can go and check it :)So, Akanji futties, probably one of the bests CB's in Bundesliga atm, and one thing that makes it better is that he is FREE, i played 5 games with him (division 1) and scored 0 goals and did 0 asists, First, in-game he looks like if he had the High and Stocky body type, seriously, he is sooo strong he can...

Akanji the boss

That last upgrade (84->86) really turned this man into prime Maldini. As someone who played 10 depth with attacking full backs, I'm really relying on my CBs to do it all. Build up attack, be the last line of defence, dribble the ball to create new passing lanes, play long balls over the top and outpace the likes of Rashford and Mbappe. Akanji succeeds in doing all of these swimmingly. I use this card with shadow and it's...
