This card is honestly a monstrosity. There are times i prefer him to the David Alaba positioned next to him. For such a low rated and fairly cheap card he is a must for any starter team, if you can link him in.

Pace, he is fast even with basic. Running a shadow on him is ridiculous.

Defending, his tackling is on point. Stand or slide he will win the ball, he doesn't get turned much and seems to be able to keep up with the fast agile strikers frighteningly well.

Dribbling, as a cheap CB his dribbling is OK

Passing, again as a low rated CB no issues.

Physical, he seems to play above what his cards physical suggests. He has out muscled every ST I have played against so far. Love it!

Link to Zakaria, while he has his issues he is not a bad card. A good link with Burki and Meunier too makes the start of a pretty good starter team. Later on it might get tougher.

There isn't any to be honest, not that I can think of. Use him, enjoy him and move on when you're ready.

BIG defender

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...
