I agree . There is no point in even getting into a discussion about him this season as he gone from Argentina to probably the best club in the world I mean what a massive step up . He looks quality and will be sone player in the near future .

Time will tell and, i hope i am wrong, dosen't look good enough to play for City.
Obviously it's too early to judge and he wasnt great yesterday however I reckon people have Aguero in their minds when they watch him, which is why he is already being written off by some.
We will never have an aguero again probably so let this guy have atleast some bedding in time to show us what Alvarez version 1 not Aguero version 2 can do.

He's being made to play as a false 9 which I don't think is his game at all.
Wasn't foden's game but he can do a really good job of it now.
Is he clinical like Alvarez? Nope.
Lmao you have seen him play how many games?Time will tell and, i hope i am wrong, dosen't look good enough to play for City.
He was crap yesterday, looked a bit rusty, but the comments saying he’s not good enough are ridiculous. We’ve already seen enough to know he’s a real talent and has a great attitude. The Leicester game was a tough one to come into because he was up against a very defensive team with three centre halves as a lone striker. He’ll get a couple more games at least before the World Cup and he’ll come good again.

He's been playing as false 9 against teams that only cared about defending, he's been constantly surrounded by two or three defenders, much taller than him, and it's not like the team has been playing particularly well these last few games. What did he do wrong so far? How many scoring chaces did he get? And please stop comparing him to Aguero or Tevez, when they arrived at MC they had already played in Europe for several years, this is Alvarez's first stint, and he's only 21 years old. Give this guy a break, come on!

But I think it is indeed fair to compare him with Jesus who followed an almost identical path to Manchester. I would put him a bit behind Gabriel together with less development potential. But hey it is early days and I do like his attitude and work ethic.He's been playing as false 9 against teams that only cared about defending, he's been constantly surrounded by two or three defenders, much taller than him, and it's not like the team has been playing particularly well these last few games.
