Man City fans identify one change Pep Guardiola must make vs Shakhtar

Manchester City fans want to see new signing Joao Cancelo given his full debut against Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League this week.

City were beaten 3-2 by newly-promoted Norwich in the Premier League on Saturday to slip five points behind leaders Liverpool.

Norwich opened the scoring from a corner, before picking City off on the counter attack and capitalising on a defensive error for their second and third goals.

City were poor throughout, despite goals from Sergio Aguero and Rodri, with a disjointed defensive performance and poor attacking decision-making.

And a number of fans identified Kyle Walker as one of the weakest performers at Carrow Road, questioning why new signing Joao Cancelo is stuck on the bench.

As City prepare for the long trip to Ukraine to face Shakhtar in the opening Champions League group game this week, fans want to see Cancelo replace Walker and stake his claim for the right-back spot going forward.
