He was important to us when we played with a false 9.
Once Haaland came, his use was less important. That and he couldn’t play on the same side as Grealish.

If that was true he wouldn't have been City's most used player in 21/22 season, we had players to play in their natural positions yet Pep decided to use Cancelo in most games(even in cup games) knowing he was such a liability?
He went on huge streaks of being top 3 player game after game, always with great defensive stats, even yesterday he was by far the player with most duels won (17/11) and balls recovered, he did that for CIty every other game.
Are you sorry he has gone ?
How was that his problem? The coach is there to solve those incompatibilities.That and he couldn’t play on the same side as Grealish.

But we still went on playing in that same way with Cancelo-Grealish even though it was clear not working well. His behaviour, in the end, even so according to rumours is not justified but I think he was kinda used as a scapegoatIndeed, he did. That’s why the mardarse plays for Barcelona now.
No, it was time for both parts to move on with this situationAre you sorry he has gone ?

We didn’t. After the World Cup, Cancelo was shite. He was dropped and spat his dummy out.But we still went on playing in that same way with Cancelo-Grealish even though it was clear not working well. His behaviour, in the end, even so according to rumours is not justified but I think he was kinda used as a scapegoat
Next thing he knew, he was in Munich.

Coincidence perhaps that the team seemed galvanised and went on to better things ?
Don't think Pep is in the habit of cutting his nose off to spite his face.
Do you not think that his " personality " was perhaps an issue ?
