27 | Matheus Nunes - 2025/26

[St.Pauli support]

Think he really has done more than enough that his critics finally forget that 1 mistake vs rags LAST season and move on from now.

I wouldn't want ANY other RB right now.

What a turnaround story.

Most improved player in the squad this year,made the right back his own position.well done Matty nunes.

 

[samuelyeboah]

It's not even hyperbolic to say he's been the best RB in the league this season. Bravo for another strong performance!

still timber, you have to say arsenal's defense has been unshakeable

 

[PragueBlue]

I like him very much as a RB. Not many better in the league or world. Should save us some money in the transfer window.

 

[Paul1970]

I questioned him before the game and now j hold my hands up that I got it wrong

 

[oldius]

One of the best full-backs in the league, athletic as hell, and a well loved member of the squad.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Name me a better right back than him so far this season. Baffles me there are still people wanting him out of the side every week when he's been magnificent all season.

I've backed him from the off and so i'm buzzing with how far he has come along. I said a while back that solid right back performances could earn him a chance in midfield or even on the wing but I feel he's surpassed all hopes and expectations to the point where he's actually too important at right back to play anywhere else now.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Top player, improving match by match in an unfamiliar position. Matty has been one of our most important players this season.

 

[warringtonblue]

Absolutely outstanding today, against a player that usually gives us nightmares

 

[skillman]

So good. Again. Attack and defence, just fucking brilliant again.

 

[lasereyes]

Called it last year - Nunes had all the attributes to be a very good RB and he's developed between the ears this year. Been so impressed with him - the assist was great but I loved that recovery tackle against Wirtz. Superb

Rest of that post doesnt look too clever though :)

If he was a January signing and we never knew the 18 months before then, we’d be saying we had one of the best right backs in Europe.

He’d never even played right back in his career before last season.

 

[waspish]

Wow he has turned it around this season

 

[Kaini Industries]

Don't think I've ever seen such a big improvement from a player in such a short period of time. Now the default right back. Big shout to him

 

[MCFC1993]

Yeah he was great today, set a benchmark going forward, does that every week and we're laughing.

 

[threespires]

Might have the best redemption arc of any City player ever! A total gem of a player!

Tbf not sure he was ever as bad as some felt he was, but it's great to see him improving and winning people over. When so many footballers throw their toys out of the pram if things aren't to their liking, it's great to see someone act like a proper professional, get their head down and apply themselves. It suggests he respects himself, the club, his colleagues and indirectly the fans too. Long may it continue.

 

[stan bowles]

Could have been MOTM today if it wasn't for Doku's performance. Nunes was superb today.

 

[mcfcallo]

He’s now a very good right back.

Not sure him or us saw that coming

 

[meeesh]

Kyle who?

 

[Beanhead]

Probably in the top 5 RBs in the world over the past 12 months. Probably top three this season. Easily good enough.
