Alvarez is a huge talent but also a young kid moving to a different culture for the first time.
He is without doubt an exciting signing but let's not go overboard on him at this time, we have seen with Grealish's first season, integrating into this team is far from easy.
If Felix is available I would think we will be all over the deal, an incredible talent and for me the ideal Pep/City player.
Not to be rude, but I don't need my expectations managing when it comes to Alvarez. I've spoken to enough people who have watched him enough to know that he will have an impact next season. That's all that matters to me. Appreciate that others will see it differently, but I'm not going overboard when I say he's a mouthwatering prospect because he is IMO.
As I've said before, the idea that we add Felix to a front line with Sterling, Mahrez, Grealish, Foden, Haaland, Alvarez, and Cole Palmer seems almost ludicrous. I also think the idea that we'd be "all over" a deal at that level (75 million plus) with all the other business we're doing seems far fetched at best.
Our attacking options are insanely good and I don't think there's room for Felix. Especially when you consider how many top class players would end up on the bench.
