Cancelo vs PSG and usually vs teams with good attacking players when he was here was getting fucked in ways you wouldn't believe a footballer could get on live tv in front of the entire world.

I don't get the infatuation.

There's a reason the guy couldn't stick to a team long-term.

Infatuation or, more precisely, appreciation, is stemming from his never give up attitude and obvious love for Barca. On top of the fact he comfortably fills 3 positions.
Curiously, all 3 that we are deficient at.

I appreciate his usefulness when he was here, but I don't believe he adds value to us now and I don't think he was that great when he was here either.

And I'm saying that as someone who liked him at Valencia, but have been disappointed by his career trajectory and development.

Someone like Grimaldo makes more sense for us IMO. Having a FB that can play both sides would be a luxury, but need to be someone good in both phases in defending and attacking.

He might fill the LW position, be he better not play LB'ish. If for some fucking reason Nico won't come this season I would not be against Joao covering LW next season. Dude is talented af, but mentally he has some screws fucking lose. As I said, if all falls through and we need an LW Joao is our guy.

He can be great attacking wise but also completely dogshit defending. If we get noine else I'd settle but Cancelo is soo unpredictable. He's driven most managers mad.

Imagine even considering the comeback of this guy after that psg disasterclass

No european club wants him, idk why would we. Fits perfectly in Al Hilal now

He can cover LB and RB and to be honest despite everything he is still miles better than Gerard Martin so for a back up wouldn't be a bad option.. Its clear that Balde and Kounde are first choice if fit but they'll need to rest, its a long season.. Against small teams in La Liga and early cup games Cancelo can be used..
