#2 Right Back: Bacary Sagna
When Manchester City signed Sagna for free in the summer, it was deemed to be a good buy as a stop-gap solution since the Citizens were given spending restrictions due to Financial Fair Play regulations. But Sagna went from being France’s and Arsenal’s first choice right back to Pablo Zabaleta’s backup and a huge flop in a matter of a few months.
It was always going to be hard for Sagna to cement his place in the City line up with Zabaleta in the side as the Argentine has been one of the most consistent and effective full backs in England for quite a while. But even when Sagna was given an opportunity by Pellegrini, he hasn’t even come close to being the player he was in an Arsenal kit.
Sagna has just played six Premier League games and eleven games overall this season and his recent outing for City at the Nou Camp against Barcelona raised several questions about him and the exclusion of Zabaleta. He may have followed in the footsteps of his teammates Samir Nasri and Gale Clichy to Manchester City in the hope of winning a Premier League title, but the chances of that happening look pretty slim now.
