7 | Joao Cancelo - 2022/23 Performances

[KingGeorge]

I get the impression that Pep is the Alpha male and anyone who questions him goes..my way or the highway..I guess every single one of us have worked with stroppy bastards and they are indeed hard to cope with. The sad thing is that every team needs a

I think most elite coaches operate a bit like autocrats. My sense is Ferguson operated similar to Pep when it comes to squad management.

lol...would love to see Bernardo`s reaction...awful by everyone involved (club,pep,cancelo)...I guess Bernardo & Diaz are next on the "unhappy" list

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Midge Ure is STILL fuming!!!

 

[we are the east stand]

There’s always 2 sides to every story but all this stuff leaking out now about his attitude, mouthing of to Pep, creating a toxic atmosphere show the club are right to fuck him off ASAP.

It does leave us short at full back but let’s be honest we’ve been in worse positions.

NO ONE is bigger than the club

It is any different to when we won our first Title under Roberto Mancini

Yeah Tevez made up with Mancini and earned back the love he still gets!

Cancelo cancelled himself out of the conversation!

There is still a chance it can get smoothed over until at least the end of the season. David Ornstein has direct links to the current league leaders (who we have just knocked out of the FA Cup and playing them in the next week). This smells of an unstablising tactic for me.

... finisher?

Sorry pressed the wrong button on my new laptop..premature typing !!! LOL

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

Where have you heard this from?

a few people who are genuinely right with goings on at city.

Seperate from that, I have even seen the comment about Cancelo screaming in mobile in this forum and twitter

Few bits of footage of him arriving and being driven away from Munich airport.

To say he looks unhappy would be an understatement.

 

[Goldust]

Would certainly explain his outright refusal to pass to Phil in the derby if true

Would make sense.

Midge Ure is STILL fuming!!!

Haha ! Cheers for that , I was racking my brains as to who he beat the number one spot too!

 

[inchy14]

Like in last summer when we let Zinny go? Sure.

Zinny went due wanting to get more game time and the probability that Cucerella was coming….

 

[Pedestrian]

If ever a player suited a club it’s this tit and them wankers.

If all the rumours are true it sounds like he's brought it on himself.

Just his normal persona from pictures I’ve seen on sky,in other words a right miserable looking ****

That's just his face in general I think. Delighted he's gone!

Maybe true but who at City is leaking this stuff (if they are). The media are right up there with the bin dippers and rags as our enemies IMHO.

I can’t remember which game (but I think it was Everton) but I commented at the time how Cancelo absolutely refused to pass the ball to Foden, often choosing cross field passes to Mahrez rather than the easier pass to Foden. When Foden was replaced by Grealish in the second half normal service was resumed. I wondered at the time if something was going on. Now, Cancelo is apparently on his way and meanwhile Foden, who is allegedly injured, hasn’t been seen for a number of games. I don’t pretend to have any inside knowledge but this feels like both players have pissed Pep off.

With regard to the move, why would we accept a loan deal with only an option to buy. I fear we could end up having to deal with Cancelo all over again in a years time. I would think he would be a highly sought after player for whom we could get a decent fee right now.

That's a fantastic summing up of the event Blue.

Yeah i've heard the second point from sources on here and twitter, the first one however about phil and cancelo going at each other is completely news to me.
