You‘re on the inevitable path to “I didn’t want him anyway.”

This has to be the worst pre season City have had under Pep. No friendly matches, couple of players coming back injured from international duties and no #9 or a LB coming in before the season starts.

We don’t need a left back we have four

Koulibaly the player or Koulibaly the thread ?

Think Walker has been one of our most consistent players over the last few seasons, every player has dips in form but i’d put Walker overall as consistently decent, from my seat in 3rd tier of South Stand anyroad.

He's been our only successful signing at full back so I agree. But his attacking output is lacking clearly, Cancelo offers a lot more in that regard. Against a lot of teams that sit back Walker is no advantage to us most of the time. Obviously he still plays part in the system and largely does decent and is reliable otherwise.

One's a CAM who had a bad season and who's wife publicly questioned Pep's tactics, one has huge availability issues and has been stripped of most of what made him good by injuries, one is a right-back and one is a centre-back who has shown that he's not got much in the way of crossing or dribbling. I agree that LB isn't one of our priorities but if we had someone anywhere near Robertson then winning the league back would be a lot easier.

None aside Mendy are actual left backs

To be fair Cancelo's attacking output last season was utter shite. I'm pretty sure Fernandinho would have offered more goals and assists from RB.
