Having arrived from Juventus in the summer transfer window for £60m, Joao Cancelo has had to bide his time at Manchester City.
The Portugal international has played second fiddle to first-choice right-back Kyle Walker, and had featured in just four games across all competitions before the Champions League clash against Dinamo Zagreb on Tuesday night.
The 25-year-old was given the opportunity to start from the off against the Croatian side, and he certainly did not disappoint Pep Guardiola with a composed display at the back.
As per Sofascore, he won three tackles, made two key passes, and completed five of his six attempted dribbles – not bad for a man playing at full-back.
After seeing Cancelo’s display, City fans flooded to Twitter to share their thoughts about their summer signing.

Many supporters of the Manchester side hailed the Portuguese defender’s quality on the ball, with one fan in particular simply describing him as being “insanely good”.
Some even insisted the former Juventus man has shown enough quality to displace Walker in the first-team, and suggested he should be given a regular chance to shine by Guardiola.
Check out some of the reaction of City fans below:
