That speaks volumes about them because (like Wallace last time out) he stood out because he basically got everything right and didn't have any silly mistakes or go missing.
I have been a happy clapper about Akins but it has been hard to defend him at times. I desperately hope he now goes on a run of good form as it feels like he is a confidence player

He's played 20 games, with a return of 34 points (1.7 ppg).
In the other 7 games we've picked up 8 points (1.14 ppg).
When he's started up front, we've got 28 points from 14 games (2 ppg).
6 points from 6 when he's started RWB or came off of the bench (1 ppg).
Arguably title form when he starts up top, play off form when he plays, lower mid table when he doesn't
(Note, this is assuming he played up front against stevenage, I didn't go so don't remember, otherwise the ppg with him up top would be even higher)

To dismiss those who have criticised him is not fair though. At Sutton and Crawley he couldn’t trap a bag of cement so let’s not make out he’s played like De Bruyne since he came. I really hope he continues in the current vein of form

He did ok in duels but could’ve given away a pen in the first half (I thought it was) and was caught out of position numerous times. He did produce a very good last ditch tackle as well.

He was a very lucky boy with that penalty shout. If was a Donny fan I'd have been raging that it wasn't given.

Akins was RWB against Stevenage.
