Manchester City star Joao Cancelo trailing only Liverpool Star Mohamed Salah among all players in the Premier League for the most points this season.
Cancelo is the only player to start all 11 of City’s league games this season – even Ruben Dias can’t match that after his marathon efforts last year – and showed again why he is so essential to Guardiola’s team.
The 27-year-old created both goals, forcing an Eric Bailly own goal before sweeping a ball in for Bernardo Silva to squeeze home, while also helping his team secure a clean sheet during their triumph in the Manchester derby.
As per Premier League, the full-back picked up 14 points for assisted both of Manchester City’s goals in a 2-0 derby win at Old Trafford.
Joao Cancelo has amassed 67 points this season, combining four assists with seven clean sheets. That total is second only to the 112 of Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) among all players in the game.
A third double-figure haul of the season took Joao Cancelo (£6.4m) to the top of the Fantasy Premier League defender scoring charts.
It feels like Cancelo is talked about all the time at the moment, but he keeps getting better that even rival fans are seriously impressed by what they are seeing from the £60 million player (BBC Sport)
