Welcome Julian Alvarez | Signing confirmed on a five-and-a-half year deal

[I'm Blue]

I wonder if he has a squeaky annoying voice.

Has Owen?
I usually pass out from boredom the second he opens his gob : )

 

[shroom]

for those wondering when JA's next River match is ...

"The draw for the round of 16 will be held on 27 May 2022, 12:00" <- we'll know after the Copa Libs draw

meanwhile he's flying to Europe to face Italy with the Arg Nat'l team at Wembley on June 1st

River Plate drew Velez Sarsfield in the round of 16, another Argentinian team. Seems best case for JA, really cuts down on the travel over the 2 legs. time/date still TBA - another month or so before they play

 

[shroom]

just realized that River Plate has filled up their June schedule with league matches - JA may have more matches to play than I thought after returning from int'l duty

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

Did someone say Argentina are playing Italy this weekend at Wembley

Same in QF too, 4 Argentinian teams, but will he be allowed to play there that long?

All “to be confirmed”. Five games in a month is nothing

No. Just round of 16

All six of those goals are very impressive.

The one in first half where he no look dinks it past the onrushing keeper is reminiscent of a couple Sergio got at Spurs.

That's natural talent. Sterling would have tried to run around the keeper before turning back for a pass in that situation.

But please, lessen the doing down of Haaland - he's a goalscoring phenomenon

Wouldn’t have thought we need to do down any players including existing ones

nah, the 2nd leg of the round of 16 will be his River finale

Had to reply to this ,
A very poor post.
Sterling came on last Sunday and made the first goal with a piece of brilliant wing play. He saved our Season. He has scored over 100 goals in 6 years at our club.
Your dislike of Sterling is legendary , liking any post that is in any way negative about him. Have you something personal against him?
