19 | Julian Alvarez - 2022/23

[Irishblue93]

Would be great to see the club bring him out with his medal before the game to show support from the fans. Athelico did something similar

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

I knew the guys would make it like this for him.

[Goater=Legend]

Have to say they all look so happy and chilled .
And look like they get on really well.
Look at the size of haaland when he walked in though.
He's not right

First thing i noticed. Hes an absolute unit going through the door.

What’s the general consensus on what this lad is worth after the WC ?

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

World cup winner. The whole world knows who he is. I bet he wouldn't have to ask "Do you know who I am?" in Greece.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

The early return is what separates certain players; tells you all you need to know about the lad and his work ethic for the team!

I think all our players who participated in the worldcup returned early.

All our players didn’t go straight through to the final, baldy

 

[1Basti]

I´m still not convinced about him. Good finisher & pressing machine but average first touch & passing.

A place in the starting lineup at city hopefully

I think he showed at the WC that if selected consistently he is more than capable. His issue at City is not getting enough minutes. I half-jokingly said during the WC that he would win the WC and then come back and get splinters in his arse watching Mahrez. Unfortunately, I think I will end up being close to the mark.

Put him and Foden alongside Haaland and I think our whole outlook changes. For a start we might start winning the ball high up the pitch again.

 

[FantasyIreland]

I like the lad plenty,he is spilling over with positives.....but i'm not convinced he fits our style/needs.

 

[Goater=Legend]

Not even sure where he was playing when he came on, just like the Brentford game he was brought on late.

 

[bluemystery]

I hope he starts instead of Haaland vs Chelsea in the cup.

good call

What is our style now though? If it’s just keep the ball and pass sideways from the flanks and constantly rely on a bit of magic from KDB then no. If you want someone wide of a front 3 who’ll press as well as anybody, add goals and drive then he could fit the bill.

THIS! pep needs to adapt to the new player we have. he has new forwards yet set up the midfield and team to play slow like we did when we had no strikers that is fucking stupid

The first bit seems to be spot on.

This is where our greatest magic lies. In the ability to win it back up the field quickly.

When we start players who aren't good at that, we may struggle.

Spot on..
