    Cancelo wants some goals

  2. _Ninja_

    Cancelo on target

  3. Casualspotted

    Another Cancelo chance. He will finish game at 5 pts

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 days ago

      + 1 BPS for shot on target, no?

    F that game, I had Sterling (c) last 2 GWs and now he scores, omg…

      I know- same here! Brought KDB in so hopefully he will get more points over the 2 games

      1. Atimis
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        Can only hope but just waiting for next season tbh

      Same but with Reece James and for the entire f**king season. Don’t have him? Eighteen points. Have him? One point.

    Big one on for Cancelo here, Targett is lost.

    1. BIG BOY BRUNO
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 days ago

      Off Targett

  6. Thomas Jerome Newton
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 8 days ago

    My team only scored 0's 1's and 2's so far. Come on Jesus, could do with another massive score again.

  7. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 days ago

    If Cancelo doesn’t get a least 20 points here… he’s everywhere!

  8. Baps hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 days ago

    Easy to say with hindsight now that I should have given C to Cancelo instead of KdB... Yet, MCI defense has been jus lucky so far.

    1. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 days ago

      I’ve (c) Cancelo last time vs Newcastle, nice haul but CS was lucky

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        KdB creating a lot though...

  9. Baines on Toast...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 8 days ago

    Cancelo (c) was maybe the shout. Cant believe he's not even 100 EO.

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 days ago

      Just fear of Salah’s ownership
      In hindsight this is two strong CS chances here for City

  10. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 days ago

    Arguably city are better with Grealish off the side of the pitch faking an injury

  11. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 8 days ago

    Jesus bottled KDB wonder assist.

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 8 days ago

        Nketiah would have buried it

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          Ed, Edd & Eddie would all have buried it.

        2. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          And Pukki

    2. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 days ago

      wow kdb whar a ball

    3. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 days ago

      C'mon, Jesus! You should have converted that! Much easier than walking on water, anyway.

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
          2 years, 8 days ago

          I'm chuckling that you didn't say it's easier than converting water to wine

      2. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        Just how has KDB not got an assist yet??

      3. nolard
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        de bruyne deserves to play with better finishers
        3 times now he has put the ball on a plate

        1. BeaversWithAttitude
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          True talk!

        2. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          Fellow KdB Capper agrees...

        3. nolard
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          i don't want city to win, but he is the leagues best player
          and i have captained him

          1. Andy_Social
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 8 days ago

            Cue Haaland

      4. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        KDB going to be essential next season with Haaland

        1. R.C
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          Pogba as well

        2. ZimZalabim
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 8 days ago

          was just thinking that

      5. _Ninja_
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        ASM thinks he has no one converting his assists... how does,! he think KDB feels here!

      6. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        This is looking like one of those points dodging games from KDB. He could and should have had 3 assists already.

      7. TomSaints
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        I stand by my view that for how good city are and how many chances they create, they don’t score enough goals.

        That doesn’t cost them often but in each of the champions league games they’ve lost they’ve bossed and missed a number of sitters

      8. Mozumbus

        2 years, 8 days ago

        Wanted to get rid of either Keane or White using FT. Ended up keeping Keane and did White>Holgate!
        BB.
        Cancelo (c).
        Finally some consolation after back to back red arrows.

        Laporte goal

      10. R.C
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        City starting XI next season

        Ederson
        Walker Dias Laporte Cancelo
        Pogba Rodri KDB

        • 2 Years
        2 years, 8 days ago

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            2 years, 8 days ago

            Dias assist though

          • R.C
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 8 days ago

            Calm down dias assist

            • 7 Years
            2 years, 8 days ago

            Me too! I've got Ederson too so if they keep a clean sheet it'll be probably the best luck I've had all season.
