#27 | João Cancelo - 2019/20 Performances

[grim up north]

Yes I do. However I think it was much easier to enjoy when we were shit. The expectations were so much lower then.

don’t get that seeing as you seem to think most of our players are shit

Most is a bit of an exaggeration, some for sure. Not every player we buy is a success , I can't see the point in pretending otherwise.

 

[penalty spot]

If he was given a decent run it would help him, he has good skills, just needs more games. Different wing backs every game doesn't help the team in general.

 

[HelloCity]

I always felt unnerved by how desperate Juve were to sell him to us.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Turning out to be a pointless signing. That £30m could have gone towards a quality centre back.

 

[super_city_si]

Would benefit if we went to 3-5-2. He’d love it and I think he’s got the game for it.

They needed to raise cash and quickly. The Danilo deal filled their position and got them cash.

He is a good player, needs a run in the team. Walker tbf has stepped up recently which is good for us as a team but I would definitely be playing Cancelo at LB as it stands I think.

He was apparently pretty average in Juve after injury ended his very good first part of the season last year. It's about what we are getting at the moment when he plays.

I must confess I wasn't completely clear in my head about Juventus sending him to us after a single season he was there. It's not a huge amount of money, guess they had some fringe players they could sell to raise 30m. Before them, Inter Milan had him on the loan and opted to not buy him.

Seeing that he is not played at LB that was some kind of rationale of buying him in first place, I'm not sure it was really a needed signing. Bit like Mahrez. obviously not shit players, though not that brilliant that were needed, specially when there were other positions that were more critical to fill.

Inter didn't opt not to sign him, Juve jumped in and stole him from them by paying more than the option fee Inter had.

They also raised 50m+ from his sale, because Danilo's fee is amortised but Cancelo's sale all goes in this years accounts.

Danilo wanted out i dont know how many times this has been said but we needed to buy another right back. Apparently we only paid 15m in cash which is pretty low.
