It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Imagine having Sterling and Traore as your wide forwards.

You'd pull your hair out.

Unless your bald.

Is Sterling that fast? He's nippy alright but he's not lightening quick (like Walker).

He’s no where near like Jesus in terms of versatility and close to a 9 than anything. Sterling leaving also would surly mean we have our hands in the pot for a wide player? That amount of pace leaving without being backed up.

Well from comments on videos by River plate fans Alvarez is a more clinical Jesus. His work rate is the same as Jesus

I think Sterling’s pace is massively over exaggerated. Even when he’s put clean through on goal, he only ever gets the ball and cuts back anyway.

This. He is one of the slowest, quick players I have ever seen. It’s all well and good being able to run fast in a straight line without the ball, but when you have to slow down to a snails pace when in possession it makes it all a bit meh.

It's Sterling we need to shift.

Absolutely no issue with Jesus staying if he wants to.

For Sterling to leave, we might have to accept less than £50m in his final year.

The gamble with this is that it would be no surprise at all if Sterling doubled or even tripled his goal output next season if playing alongside Haaland.

Raz is a proven goalscorer when playing alongside an Aguero or Harry Kane. I also think he’d have a point to prove going into the last year of his contract.

That said, Jesus is the superior footballer and works much harder for the team. Although we are not short of hard working players, we are short of people who can put the ball in the back of the net.

Alvarez isn't just a goal scorer either he's created the most chances in Copa Libertadores

most chances created (13) • most key passes (13) • most chances created per game (6.5) • most key passs per game (6.5)

He's going to fit in here nicely, him and Haaland will be dangerous. Adds a new dimension to our attack

Sterling holds all the cards,i can see him doing a Milner (albeit without the false promises)

He definitely needs to go,he is the least City type player in the first team picture and he is blocking the way of someone who could consistently improve us.

Unless your bald.

Then you’d chew your fingernails off.

There was some river plate lads on the metro in Madrid asked them about Alvarez they said he's the best player in Argentina
