Sorry bud, just not true. Look at his second leg performance against PSG for instance. Which was probably our biggest game last season (given the final took place after)
Fair enough but you’re talking as rare as rocking horse shit to see him burst through like that. If Foden’s playing on the left fine but if it’s anyone else they’re going to get far less support going forward than from Cancelo. As Grealish is struggling to beat anyone full stop I don’t see having a left footed left back who rarely gets forward changing much.
 
Don’t think Cancelo was particularly bad. Nowhere near his best going forwards but Zinky offers absolutely fuck all going forwards anyway. Unless Foden is on the left that’s a big problem as nobody else can ever go on the outside of a fullback
Was the worst player on the pitch bar laporte for me

how many times did he shoot from outside the box and the ball end up in row Z , or shoot outside the box straight at a defender who’s stood right in front of him

I can accept that a little bit

what was really frustrating was how many times he had the ball half way into there half and crossed a hopeless ball right to the keepers hands or out of play . Lost count how many times he wasted possession yesterday

I was probably being too lenient towards him but 2nd worse had to be KDB. Truly awful until he was eventually replaced
 
First shocker I've seen from him in a while. No big deal, he's got the mentality to be fine.

However he has just booted the door open for John.
 
He's still a very, very good CB in my eyes when all is said and done. Just a bit too error prone in this moment for him to be at his best (which is on him).
He is a top class CB with the ball at his feet when we dominate possession but when under pressure, since his knee injury, he is an accident waiting to happen.

He has zero recovery pace and is so flat footed, nearly every game this season he has been caught out, Saturday sadly he did not get away with it.
