Those were exceptional circumstances against a Villa side that wilted. Before that, however, and in recent weeks, we've seen that teams have started to play more narrowly to negate Cancelo's threat. That will only happen more next season, so we need to evolve and find someone who can exploit the outside left of a team with more pace than Zichenko. I don't know who that player will be, but I suspect we're looking for players that complement what we already have rather than replacements. We don't need replacements anymore, we need players with the skill sets that we don't have, and that's true in every area of the park.Is Cucurella any good? I‘ve only seen Brighton when they play us and don’t remember him.
Is he quick? If he’s no better than Zinchenko then no need for him, Zinny is perfectly good back up for Cancelo. He was bloody amazing on Sunday!
For City so far this window, re Alvarez and Haaland he’s been spot on a fairly much amongst the first. Just builds on last weeks 5 reports.although this guy has been hit and miss in the past its been more hit recently?
Cucurella is by far Brighton’s best player, as a fullback. Rapid, passing, crossing, also good at defending 1v1.Is Cucurella any good? I‘ve only seen Brighton when they play us and don’t remember him.

he’s better than Zinchenko. The idea is that Cancelo ain’t gonna be the main lb in a season ish. And we need depth on that position
Agree with that, Cancelo seems better on left, but he’s class both, a great option.Maybe if our new LB is as good as Walker in terms of speed, strength and determination then maybe Cancelo will be as gogoodt RB as he is today at LB (with Walker at RB).
ATM Canco is a better LB than RB imo.
That’s my point. City are going for a leftback and zinchenko seems set on staying. Cancelo is still starting on the left until the new lad settles, but Walker is 32 and needs rotation more and Cancelo will succeed him eventually on the rightMaybe if our new LB is as good as Walker in terms of speed, strength and determination then maybe Cancelo will be as gogoodt RB as he is today at LB (with Walker at RB).

I think it'll depend on who's the starting LW it'll prob come down to the combination and where the width is needed.What is this nonsense?
Cancelo is 27, he will be our starting LB till the day he leaves.
