Alvarez was/is a much better player than Marmoush. I don’t really see how Marmoush has a future here, if Pep doesn’t think he can play anywhere but striker.

Alvarez was a much better goal scorer but Omar is a much better presser (easily the best presser on the whole team) and links up with Erling better as a secondary striker.

It's like splitting hairs imo and I like them both.

What I don't like is Pep not playing a 4 4 2 or 4 1 3 2 or 2 1 5 2 so we keep having really good players wanting to move on for the sake of their careers.

It's basically a rehash for when we had Kun and Jesus but he refused to play them together.. but back then we had Sterling, Sane and Mahrez.

Right now goals from the wings are lacking so we should be going with 2 strikers.

Disagree with this part.

Alvarez was the closest I have seen to Tevez in regards to work rate from a forward.

Offers little or nothing imo. Not good enough for PL, definitely not good enough for CL.

Over reaction. There’s no room for him at the minute, Pep trusts the current players that are playing and that’s working at the minute. I think he’s class, but at the same time I don’t see how he gets the chance to to get his form up.

I think he’ll be a shock exit in the summer. Playing him always feels like he’s being shoehorned in, he’ll eventually reach a point where he realises he has to make a big decision. It’s the Jesus/Alvarez situation again, and will always be that way whilst Haaland is here.

We might just have to get an inferior young version of Jaaland to simply be the backup striker.
 
Did ok. Ran, gave them something to think about but no service however, I doubt he was expecting any at that stage of the game

I’m gutted he’s going to Afcon, he’s just coming into the team and now he’s off

He'll get some good game time, and hopefully come back fitter and stronger for the run in to the end of the season.

He's no better than Gabriel Jesus has been at Arsenal. A flash in the pan in the Bundesliga, the PL is a step too far.

Didn’t do to bad for us when he signed last season, without him we wouldn’t have got champions league football. Also unfortunate to pick up an injury during the early parts of this season.

I find the Jesus comparisons baffling, but anyway.
 
Did fine in his cameo, there seems to be an expectation lately that players coming on for 10 minutes put in the motm performances. He put himself about, chased things down and tried to break away with it once or twice, unrealistic to have expected him to have done much more than he did.

He's a willing runner, just like Jesus. Not a lot more than that. Like Jesus, pretty much a one-season wonder.
