Akanji had been fucking fantastic for a fifth choice centre back (that's how he started the season). To be honest, i much rather see him in the back 4 ahead of I'm Eric I want to go to Barcelona The Door.

That’s not true. He signed for us on 1st September and on 6th September started and played 90 minutes against Sevilla. Then the week after played 90 minutes against Dortmund. Then 90 minutes against Wolves a few days later. He never came in as 5th choice.

Laporte is fit, Akanji should never be ahead of him

Akanji is a real liability. I cannot understand the praise.

Not good this, so far.

If we didn’t play players based on the press saying they want to leave Haaland, Gundo, Bernardo, Laporte, Alvarez all would never play.

Hands are low but that's a penalty that. Stopped the ball moving forward.

Yeah I know what you mean. Bet the commentators would have made more of it if it was one of our players
