This seems to justify assumptions about the weakness of Manchester City's defense this season. They need strong defenders so they can minimize losses and concede lots of goals. Manchester city have priority on defense now after their previous 4 matches saw them conceding 5 goals. But if actually Manchester City want to buy a defender, then I'm sure they will look for a better one instead of Manuel Akanji. Honestly I don't know the man, he doesn't seem like a strong defender to me.
