Matheus Nunes
27-Year-Old
Manchester City
Premier
Continues at right-back
Nunes recorded one shot (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 loss against Aston Villa.
ANALYSIS
Nunes would work his way into a starting role once again Sunday, a fourth straight start for the midfielder, all of which coming at right-back. His performance was decent, notching a shot and a cross in the attack to go along with one clearance, two tackles won and four interceptions in the defense. It seems to be his role to lose for now, although Abdukodir Khusanov (foot) could change that narrative once he returns.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
To switch positions permanently?
Matheus Nunes might change positions on a permanent basis, according to Mark Ogden of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Nunes has spent most of his career playing as a midfielder, but he's been deployed as a right-back by Pep Guardiola. The Spanish manager recently stated that Nunes "is not clever enough" to play the midfield role he wants at City, so it seems the former Wolves star will switch to the right side of the defense for good, or at least until Guardiola remains with the club.
