19 | Julian Alvarez - 2022/23

[River Plate]

World star in the making. Just hope that he gets enough playing time for it to happen at City.

What a bargain.

 

[mosssideblue]

Took his goal really well. Needs to be playing more for us

 

[jollylescott]

He's such a class player and that was a great goal. Can strike with either foot. We will need him desperately during the fixture congestion in the next few months.

 

[super_city_si]

Played really well across the whole front line. Constantly on his toes pulling defenders out of shape

Better than Messi .............well he was tonight , he ran Poland ragged and scored a superb goal on the world stage and yet he is a bench warmer at the Etihad !!!
Seriously this lad needs to be starting games in a blue shirt , he is ahead of Mahrez and Grealish and our first choice front three should be Alvarez , Haaland and Foden.
He is far more than a bench warmer and needs game time to get to his peak form , there is so much more to come from him , cannot believe how little we paid for him and i would bet his contract isnt anywhere near the likes of Mahrez & Grealish.
Renegotiate and extend his contract and tie him down because Barca & Real will be knocking on the door next season , he is the next Tevez/Aguero.

1st start in Argentina's league = goal
1st start in Premier League = goal
1st start in Champions League = goal
1st start in World Cup = goal

And I'm pretty sure he scored on his first start in Libertadores and one of your English cups.

Let's not get silly comparing him with Messi.

But I agree with your other point. He needs to be starting, either alongside Haaland in a front 2 or in a front 3 with Foden/Grealish and Haaland.

Out of topic but what's up with Julián's acne? He didn't have that in Argentina, and he was a teeneger here. XD

I met him shopping with his girlfriend in ASDA next to the Etihad. Too many pies perhaps.
