Think if he wants out our best option would be to try negotiate with PSG to include Vitinhha or Simons or Both
A few options I suppose, but would prefer keeping him for at least another year and see Haalands intention.Foden, Bernardo and even Grealish have played false 9 before.
Alvarez is more of a false 9 than a fox in the box 9. A Musiala, Olmo type could probably do a false 9 job too.
I’d only really be entertaining selling Alvarez if the club knew who his replacement would be.
If we got Musiala in I wouldn’t be disappointed.Foden, Bernardo and even Grealish have played false 9 before.

I would too, ideally. Alvarez has a long contract. We’re in control of the situation.A few options I suppose, but would prefer keeping him for at least another year and see Haalands intention.
Who does he go to? Barca are broke, Real are littered with superstars and PSG I can’t see being an appealing move for him.A few options I suppose, but would prefer keeping him for at least another year and see Haalands intention.
Exactly that. It’s usually a management or ownership structure that creates a culture firstly with a nod to strategy that allows already motivated people to grow and flourish. Pep is successful at City because he allowed to get on with his job and he is trusted to do it. Same with a football team or Sales team. Create the right structure, culture and strategy and then talent rises to the top. Those with less talent work harder to keep up or get found out. I remember a case study done in the US on people working 2 or sometimes 3 jobs. The same person who is very popular with staff and guests, often employee of the month as a hotel barista in the morning was anonymous working the tables at a casino in the evening. It’s the same person in two very different cultures.England are shit, Argentina are decent. Neither is solely down to Foden or Alvarez. In my opinion to suggest that one player is responsible for a team of 11 being good or not is naive in the extreme
I did not suggest that for a moment just giving a different view of the abilities of two City players.The view in Argentina is different to the popular view in Manchester.My point is that Julian contributes more to a team than Foden.England are shit, Argentina are decent. Neither is solely down to Foden or Alvarez. In my opinion to suggest that one player is responsible for a team of 11 being good or not is naive in the extreme
