7 | Joao Cancelo - 2022/23 Performances

[Eric Hitchmough]

I won't miss him because I have always maintained he's nowhere near as good as people or himself seem to think.

Doesn't have a defined position and each one he does play in, makes the team weaker in other parts.

If we do get 70m euros at the end of it, I will be astonished and pleased.

Thanks for your involvement in the titles but Pep can't have anyone causing strife in the squad.

Any talk of a last-minute replacement Tolm? I’m guessing it’s a non starter given how late in the day it is.

 

[TFC]

Wonder if we'll ever get the full story. I'd love to know why he's chucked his toys out of the pram. Lack of game time?

There was talk in the press the other week with Alvarez allegedly saying that him , and other squad members weren’t happy with Pep

 

[M Gaudino]

Stick to ringing cars

?

 

[Crooked_rain]

Wouldn’t be at all bothered if we were getting a top replacement

 

[mattyb]

Completely fair point and obviously I was wrong to be sceptical about this.

Just didn't realise it had turned so sour so quickly. I thought Cancelo would be off in the summer, just because we tend to avoid doing any kind of business in January, but it seems it's really deteriorated.

A shame.

Yeah I agree, fantastic footballer on his day, but I’ve heard he’s a right moody bastard

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Him not wanting to be here is fine, all for letting someone unhappy go.

He is a dickhead for not signing a proper left back for 3 years when the need has been clear.

he's a dickhead for letting Zin go in summer and no replacement and relying on someone so volatile.

he's dickhead for not having anything lined up for Jan when cancelo's been sulking for weeks.

Ask any City fan what the biggest risk was going in to this season and it was the farce at left back and it's blown up spectacularly in our faces.

Not having any nonsense about only wanting the best either we've signed Gomez and Phillips last year for no other reason than they were available.

An in form Cancelo and there’s no complaints to make. No one could have predicted his form to completely deteriorate to the point of Pep wanting him out. Ake and Lewis have proven to be solid full back options, so in theory we weren’t any worst off. We signed Phillips because of his good performances for England and Leeds. No denying it hasn’t worked out well so far, partly due to his injuries and not quite fitting in yet.

I just think labelling Txiki as a dickhead is a bit weird considering how successful we’ve been over the years.

?

Take it you don’t know much about the player you’ve taken your username from?

 

[Man-chester copperpot]

Is Jonny F*cking Evans available?

What’s Terry Phelan up to?
