Kyle Walker - Page 2 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Doubt for Arsenal tilt Walker will be a late-fitness test for Sunday's match against Arsenal, pending on the results of a hamstring scan per skysports.com.

Impact Walker is now set to undergo a scan after initial thoughts of his injury not being serious, leaving him in question for Sunday's contest. This all comes after the defender went down while serving with the English national team, appearing to have picked up a hamstring issue just before the club's most crucial match of the season. He will now most likely face a late fitness test to determine his status, hoping to be available and in the starting XI against the Gunners, having started in all but one of his 26 appearances in league play this campaign.

Comes off Saturday Walker came off holding his hamstring during Saturday's loss to Brazil.

Impact Walker didn't have any update on his injury status but the fact he was forced off the pitch isn't a good sign. Walker will be in doubt for the first match coming out of the international break, a March 31 clash with Arsenal. If Walker is sidelined Rico Lewis would likely see more chances in the starting XI.

Whips in eight crosses Walker generated eight crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 win against Brentford. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 82nd minute.

Impact Walker had a decent match for his standards Tuesday, tying a season-high and match-high in crosses with his eight. However, in a game that was majorly dominated by City, the defender did not record many stats in the defense, with his one clearance being the only significant stat. After falling to the bench two matches ago against Everton, he has now started in both of the club's league games since then, notching two chances created, four clearances and 11 crosses across that span.

Assist in win Walker assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 win against Newcastle United.

Impact Walker saved his poor defensive performance Saturday by registering an assist in the win, finding Bernardo Silva in the 26th minute for the opening goal of the game. This was only Walker's second assist of the season, with his last coming back on Dec. 3 against Nottingham Forest. However, he was not at his best in the defense, constantly getting beat on the right flank by the Newcastle attackers, allowing two goals in one-versus-one positions while only making one tackle won and two interceptions.

Leads team in crosses Walker registered one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (five accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Crystal Palace.

Impact Walker had a great match Saturday, leading the team and game in crosses with his seven. The defender continues to be one of City's best defenders this season, gaining the start in all but two matches this season, notching a solid 39 crosses, 25 tackles, 16 interceptions and 13 tackles in his 21 starts this season.

Crucial in defense Walker has registered one assist on 16 chances created to go along with 28 crosses, 19 tackles (ten won) and 16 clearances in his 15 starts across all competitions.

Impact Walker hasn't missed a beat for the Cityzens this season, earning the nod in the starting XI for all but one match this season, only missing out on a UCL match against Young Boys. The defender is having one of his better seasons defensively since arriving in Manchester, averaging 1.25 tackles, 1.17 clearances and 0.5 interceptions per game in the Premier League this season. There should be no reason that the right-back should fall out of a starting role this season, and he should continue to be a normal sight in the final line for the rest of the campaign.

One cross in loss Walker recorded one cross (zero accurate) and two tackles in Sunday's 1-0 loss against Arsenal.

Impact Walker sent in just a single cross Sunday as he was forced into a more defensive role by the attacking options with Arsenal. Walker is a largely known quantity at this point, but is offering less going forward in recent seasons. The wing-back will likely remain a more reserved option with just one goal contribution in 2023/24.

Registers rare assist Walker assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Walker registered a rare assist in Saturday's match after finding Phil Foden for the opening goal of the match. It was Walker's first assist of the year and also his first since the 2021/22 campaign. However, he didn't contribute a whole lot in the defense, only notching two clearances. The defender had a lot of questions hanging over his head going into the season with Rico Lewis and Nathan Ake contending for more playing time and a possible move out with an expiring contract, but has silenced the questions by starting every match for City this season. He seems to still be a main part of Pep's plans and should continue in the starting role.
