This lad really hits a ball hard and true

THe finish was magnificent and one he got Fodens pass out of his feet was there never any doubt it was going in.

Superb little player who is only going to get better

 

[Tevez City]

Glad for him & hopefully more to come.

He fits into lone striker role more.. i understand we have to accommodate him so he is playing deep but looks out of the place right now. It will take time. He is too good to sit in the bench.

I agree. We could have saved a shed full of cash on Gvardiol and played Alvarez at LB; )

Agree with this. He certainly can be clever with his passing but he’s got a strikers mentality, not a creative mindset. Nothing wrong with him at all but he’s being asked to do some things he’s probably not best suited for in order to get time on the pitch. Start to wonder whether he loses this position if Foden, Bernardo, and Doku are all available

Should have scored that chance near the end of really.

 

[JDV]

I thought he had some great touches throughout the game.

I don’t get the Alvarez love in.

I think he brings some skills to the table. But I do think he is say, Spurs standard and not our level.

I maintain he won’t be with us in 2 years.

He has to offer more if he is going to be our second striker.

He's about as good as Jesus was and complains less about not being involved.

I'm fine with him.
