I think we forget that Walker can't defend either
He’s a physical phenomenon with world class pace / acceleration that never gets injured at 6 feet tall. In a Guardiola side that’s all you really need from a defensive standpoint at fullback.
Once Joao settles I think he’s an upgrade in totality but from my perspective it’s incredible what Walker does and that’s coming from somebody who wasn’t worried at all about conceding with Fern/Rodri in the place prematch thread.
It’s a shame that we never really had any attacking threats from the two positions under Pep. Really hoping Mendy stays fit and Joao can adapt quickly.
