Need to try Walker as CB and him on DR
Walker’s concentration levels may not be enough to play CB but it would be a good experiment to see

think he started to settle down nicely the end of last season and will end up first choice on either side. Probably a factor as to why we haven't brought a LB (as well as Ake) although we need one.
Kyle is quick and aggressive. He can jump, pass and tackle. Hope we try it.Walker’s concentration levels may not be enough to play CB but it would be a good experiment to see

It was an excellent performance by Cancelo tonight. In a very good team performance by Portugal, he stood out.
We are finally going to see just how good he is.

I don't think Pep sees him being good enough with his feet tbh.Walker’s concentration levels may not be enough to play CB but it would be a good experiment to see

He played very well acting like a wing back and could see him play with Torres overlapping on the right. Pep likes him playing more defensively, well last season anyway.

It’s the lapses in concentration that cause him to under hit, over hit a pass or pass blindly at times.
Both players have their strengths. Hopefully, the competition brings out the best in them.

What's his injury anybody know?, no mention of him since the internationals.
Odd that he wasn't even training at all with us, then immediately trains/starts with Portugal. Wonder if something happened behind the scenes?cancelo stae rating for Portugal tonight

Something not right here, he shouldn't of been allowed on international duty if he wasn't available for City.
I think that’s the thing. If it wasn’t muscular then him getting some games having not played for 4 weeks or so is a good idea, so long as his game time is managed so he doesn’t over do it.Some people are saying he's been out with a head injury, so I guess if he was cleared he's good to go. If that's the case I don't mind him getting some fitness in a Portugal friendly.
The general problem is though that international managers don’t seem to care about the overall welfare of their players cos they only see them once every 3 months.

The fucks going on here? Fit enough to start for Portugal but we've been forced to play walker every game because he's "injured".
He got injured, returned to training at City 10 days ago but wasn't fit to make the bench for Saturday. City are probably delighted he has got a few friendlies to get match fit again.

It was a foot injury.
