Welcome Joao Cancelo

[simon23]

He actually got the number wrong lol

Yeah someone else just said

Joao Cancelo: "I'm a very offensive right-back, I enjoy going forward. That's this team's style and I consider myself a very technical player. I'm here to help my teammates and Manchester City reach their goals."

One of the best fullbacks in world football for Danilo + 27m. Txiki has done it again.

highly doubt it....walker is a level headed guy and knows its a squad game...People like walker thrive on competition.

I think Walker knows he’ll be playing in a back three more often now, as well.

 

[Corky]

who?

 

[Ban-jani]

Liverpool might as well Cancelo that title challenge.

Welcome Len

 

[domalino]

Is he just a right back or can be play in a number of roles?

Played as a RW quite a bit for Valencia.

I want to know if Walker’s welcome is a tad awkward tomorrow.

Kyle just got handed a new contract + probably a pay rise so I'm sure he's feeling pretty secure in his place.

Maybe Walker is covering at CB.

 

[Uffa]

27 years since they last had a legitimate league win?

Hmm yeah Cancelo did have a cheater's face already when he was -2 years old, you're right.

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

excellent signing....excited to see what this lad can do under Pep...our most technically gifted fullback and a natural fit on the wing when needed....great work blues!!!!

 

[MillionMilesAway]

I didn't think we had the money for that!

 

[Gordyola]

Blinking heck they kept this one quite not a whiff, must have sneaked him in, we never even had him on flight radar or dining out Amazing well done City

 

[trumpton]

6 year deal? Wow

Long deal for a Walker backup ;)

4 years before a 1000 plus page thread on his new contract. Happy days

I was making a joke about Juve, mate...

 

[WallyA]

I think we will see 3-5-2/3-4-3 used alot more because I don't see Walker and Cancelo as competing.

If we play a back 3 with Laporte, Stones, Walker with Otamendi and 2 kids as depth I would be okay with that.

Cancelo and Bernardo on the right with Mendy and Sterling on the left is very dangerous.

 

[MonsallBlue]

Think that poster said number 29.

And I advised him to change it to 27....

 

[Gabriel]

Welcome. Wonder when he’ll get his first game?

 

[OB1]

A very exciting signing.

Battle for the starting berth between him and Kyle should be interesting. Looks like Cancelo can play on the left too.
