So they’ll presumably be buying a LB then?
Joao Cancelo | Bayern watch

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Didn't know pep had a daughter.
I’d imagine it’s another DiMaria type situation. I know he’s not been playing well but it’s still a shock
Baldie is a weird fecker.
Letting Zinchenko go now seems like a pretty big mistake...
You can afford to sell such quality when you have a money cheat code as a club.
Meanwhile we are trying to rehabilitate AWB

Oh wow what a surprise.
I loved him every time i saw him in the last few years. He reminds of Lahm in the sense of being a "playmaker full back".
What happened to him this season? Why was he benched most of the time?

Wasn't there rumours he fell out with Pep?
Bayern just casually get him on loan. What a life.
Maybe they are aiming at getting Shaw 
If they meet in the CL I hope he scores the winner and goes full Adebayor.

€70m? Christ. Should be half that.
Nathan Ake's been playing on the left. The young RB is Rico Lewis, don't really see the hype tbh.
Where would he play for you? RB?
I think she was with Dele Alli at one time
What's happened with him? Fallen out with Pep? The guy was one of the best fullbacks in the league.
Interesting. Maybe baldie is cracking
interesting to see if Bayern use him at right or left back, he looked dreadful as an orthodox right back at the WC, but they’ve got Davies for the left
Very strange how quickly he's fallen out of favour/how his form dropped.
Having signed Dias, Laporte, Cancelo, along with Walker, Stones, Mendy etc. felt like City had their defence sorted for years. Things change quickly in football.

Christ. Almost self sabotage selling Zinchenko then Cancelo. Both players had earned serious praise in the 12 months prior to their sale and were seen as pivotal to their play. Ake isn't comparable to either as a LB, particularly on the ball.
Definitely RB, Pavard hasn't been a reliable option there and the only back up they have is a young Stanisic.
Maybe city will go for the next best thing in Theo Hernandez or something
Benjamin Mendy to come back in to the team?
Mostly i think, yes.
Pavard is in bad form and tells everyone on a weekly base that he only wants to play a center back (although he is not that good at it).
Mazraoui has been excellent for us as RB, but unfortunately he is injured and its not sure when he will be back. He has heart issues after Covid.
Once Mazraoui is back, i can also imagine Cancelo as LB. He's been great at City there and Davies has been underwhelming in the last 1 or 2 years for me except for his insane speed.
Good news. City losing Cancelo and Zinchenko in a short span of time and signing Haaland. Now hopefully Pep fecks off too
when you go that tractor money, you can do anything.
Has Mazraoui not been able to find his Ajax form?
Bayerns a bit over the place these days
Imagine if Arsenal cave in to these idiots 
He's lost his place in the City team and for Portugal during the world cup, he's dropped off a lot this season.
Ake playing ahead of him at left back is a bit of a smack in the face for him.
I wonder if this is a bit of a power move by Guardiola, maybe showing some of their other underperforming players that nobody is bigger than the club?

Oh right yea I completely forgot about him
He was actually good when he started getting minutes but he's been injured since the world cup.Still think Cancelo is going to be a RB but would be helpful as a LB backup.
This time last season he was one of the best full backs in world football. Bizarre to just give him to Bayern instead of working on his game.
Ake is a big step down. Which is good for everybody else.

Simply must be something untoward going on between him and Pep
I'm not sure if he's fallen out of with Pep but his performances haven't been great this year. He was dropped from the Portugal starting 11 as well so it's not just related to what's going on at the club.
Getting benched by Ake would definitely cause some self-reflection
Something must've happend during the WC. He had played almost every minute in the league up until the WC, and only one full game since.
City need fullbacks badly
Mendy actually lasted longer at City than Cancelo. That's crazy.
He definitely had an argument with Pep or something. It all makes no sense
Ake is a much better defender. He just locked down Saka in the FA Cup.
Not the playmaker Cancelo is of course, but when Cancelo is off form that's not so relevant.
