7 | Joao Cancelo - 2022/23 Performances

[JTFactsPlz]

Bad behaviour towards manager? So bench him to next 5-7 games or fine him?!! Sending him out without a replacement in middle of season for free when we are short of fullbacks is beyond insane

So give him 5-7 more games to be toxic in the dressing room and continue unsettling the entire squad? Right. Excellent plan.

Clearly some lucky people here have never worked in a toxic work environment and/or are incredibly naive. Plus the disrespect to the management of our club, that they would have done this if there were any other way, is mind-boggling. It's crystal clear from all that's gone on that there wasn't any other option than parting ways.

Good luck to the lad. A mercurial talent for sure, but no one’s above the team.

 

[M16 citeh]

True. We only need Yes Man in the club.

Not exactly but I wouldn't really say a player like cancelo was a valuable leader or voice in the dressing room

 

[Tevez City]

Enough to realize he was a huge downgrade on Walker.

As far as I know

He is the only fullback who plays in the opposite side of his prefered foot

And in spite of that he was selected in the PL & CL team of the season.

He was selected for it; Aguero never was.
Go figure.

 

[Tim of the Oak]

Isn't that what started his behaviour being benched? I think he'd of just caused more chaos and it'd of got to a point were he'd no longer be turning up to train.

We’ve no idea. The only people who know are drawing a line under it. Both Jao and Pep wanted the exit so that’s a win win.

Get him out of the club, no room for bad apples. In the long run, and the short term, it will benefit the club.

 

[eastmanc]

No one knows what has gone on, but Cancelo isn't bigger than the Manager let alone the club. Pep and the management at City are paid to make these difficult decisions. We have to trust that they have acted in the best interests of City.

You say no one knows what happened but it must of be really bad, whatever Cancelo did, for City to loan him out to a main rival on such short notice.

 

[eastmanc]

It was a simple decision for City, he had to go because no player, doesn't matter who they are, can challenge the authority of the manager.

 

[Keeper!]

As far as I know

He is the only fullback who plays in the opposite side of his prefered foot

And in spite of that he was selected in the PL & CL team of the season.

Last season he was superb but it seems to be a pattern at every club he plays for,his form drops off the cliff and he becomes moody and disruptive.

When he is bad, he is shocking.

As said before, he is a huge talent but in terms of character he is wanting.
