João Cancelo (24 Viewers)

[Hust]

Spinazzola is right footed. Try him at RB. If it works and City wants to spend a huge sum for Cancelo then go ahead.

Cool. So we kick the can down the road more. Now we will need a LB as it leaves sandro only on the left.

We don't need a 40m back up. We do need need better (more expensive) midfielders.

We have Rogerio as well.

Not sure Rogerio is suddenly going to be given a backup role to Sandro. Maybe, but that is wayyyyyyy off the Max we know.

How about we save our money that would be required for another winger and push Cancelo further forward instead ?
If we decide to play 3 at the back, that will also benefit Cancelo.

It would be a practical decision to sell him if an obscene offer arrives but it's just disappointing to give up on him after just one season. We made a significant investment here.

 

[Hust]

I agree about pushing him forward, but that will mean we need to spend to support the RB role.

I think everyone is in agreement that a 352 would be best with him in it and most benefitial to him. Not sure of any RBs on the market we can attack on the market?

Maybe the 352 is the best for next season. I have given up on Dybala but maybe a front 2 he can develop some chemistry with Ronaldo. If we go the 352 route then we will absoltuely be selling some attackers.

Selling Cancelo won't be unexpected as he's one the players that Juve can sell for a high price. But I feel like I misunderstood Allegri if Cancelo is sold at his request. For me, Cancelo is exactly what Juve's ideal right back should be.

 

[JuveJay]

at least I''m consistent, same can't be said about cancelo. I always said he can't defend yet some said "allegri will teach him" lol yeah ok

Out of interest how has Pereira been this season? I genuinely don't know.

Why not? this is all just hypothetical speculation of course. I don't remember Max ever being hesitant to give youngsters a back up role. Rogerio is a good player and a full starter in Serie A. If he doesn't come back then he will be sold for good money eventually.

Shit defensively, good going forward. Has even played as a winger at times.

 

[j0ker]

So let's say we sell him, who do we replace him with?

Are there any great RBs out there who are not at top clubs already?

He's been quite decent, generally consistent. Was alternating between RB and RW under Puel and was contributed to quite a bit to their attacking play

Doesn't matter. In important CL matches De Sciglio will start over his replacement anyway.

 

[Snobist]

I say sell Cancelo for 60m. Buy Hysaj for 30m. We get a solid RB. Very good defender, not so bad in offense. Win win situation.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Let's fuck about with positions were secure in then run out of time and money before we address the squads glaring problems round #50 here we go!

We will forever be the nearly team and eternally the "1 or 2" players away from a CL side because every.fucking.summer. we end up with this shit.

6/10 season imo, but wouldnt sell. Actually one of the last players Id consider selling. In the 1st part of the season he looked like one of the best FBs out there. I think injury slowed him down a bit. He will get back to his best next year, asuming he doesnt pick up an injury over the summer. Defensively he will always be shaky, but we have seen the difference he can make in the final 3rd.

100% sure we would take that deal but no one will offer 60m for Cancelo and Napoli would rather sell to anyone but us.

 

[MikeM]

Did we not watch him at Inter before we bought him? Is our board surprised that he has defensive weaknesses all of a sudden? This season was about what you would have expected on aggregate. But before he got hurt, he showed something special. After he got hurt, a trainwreck.

For me actually, his top form was better than I expected. I don't see how we could be surprised by him and decide to sell. Unless he is a problem in the room.

 

[Cerval]

Cancelo is a great player when on form. Whatever we decide to do with him I don't mind.

But if I'm honest, his style is not the one of the type of fullback I prefer

Best thing would be to convert him as a winger if he's able to make the transition

From what the GdS reporter said Allegri is tired of him not listening to his instructions. He's either incapable of what Allegri wants him to do or just doesn't want to listen.

I don't understand why I keep seeing this "injury" excuse for poor form popping up lately.

Does an injury make you make stupid mistakes in defense? He has pace going forward with the ball, has no problems taking on defenders when attacking. That's not really indiciative of injury recovery issues, is it?

Its annoying to see an injury months ago used to excuse shitty decisions in defense. Seems like cherry picking to me.
