This could be a master stroke signing by us. Comparing him to Thomas Muller will do for me. If he turns out to be half as good him we will have a good one on our hands.He was being hunted by most of the top clubs in Europe. For that fee it’s a no-brainer particularly if Haaland doesn’t work out.

actually the Muller comparison is spot on regarding his tactical positioning in the final third but they are very different is how they move. Muller is more about movement without the ball but Julian is more of a carrier with the ball at his feet from what I have seen.The Argentine Thomas Muller sounds about as pep a player as you’ll ever get!

Argentina are on BT2 tonight 11:30 against Colombia, let hope he's playing
Most Argentinian journalists seem to think he won't start, but he might get some minutes.
Either way, I wouldn't expect too much from him right now, remember that the Argentinian league finished in early/mid-December, he's essentially been on holiday for a month and a half and hasn't really played competitively other than the 10 minutes he got against Chile last week.

For anyone who wants another perspective on the lad, I’ve linked a video below with someone who has done a video with @twosips in the past…
Sounds like weve signed a good un
Hoping the same. Regardless of outcome, it suits how City operate.Sounds like weve signed a good un
Glad people have seen the video. Clear and succinct analysis as well. The comparison to Muller is understandable. Only time will tell how it’ll pan out.The Argentine Thomas Muller sounds about as pep a player as you’ll ever get!

Fair play for spotting that.It was good apart from the one glaring factual clanger about ‘the first league title in our history’
I was referring more to the player analysis which I thought was insightful.

Alvarez is on freeview channel 65 freesports in about 30 minutes. He comes on at minute 78 for Martinez in Argentina v Chile. Worth a gander at the new recruit.

Hopefully he comes on at some point in the second half. Interested in watching him live rather than just YouTube clips.
On a side note, I think Liverpool have pulled a blinder again in signing Luis Diaz. He's looked like a brilliant player every time I've seen him.

I hope he gets brought on anyway, otherwise I would have wasted an hour and a half of my life watching a bunch of pussies throwing themselves to ground and screaming at every opportunity.

Dybala and Gonzalez on with 25 minutes left and defending a 1-0 lead. Fuck this.

...and where to get the best fish and chips from :)Another Txiki Blinder!!
Peanuts for the South American Player of the Year.
Now, it’s up to him to do the work needed to settle in Manchester, learn the system, and work hard on training. He clearly knows where the goal is and has a shot on him, so the hardest part is already built in!
Looking forward to this boy doing the business. Hardest part will be settling in, but that’s why we have so many ex-players, ambassadors and dedicated staff for this very purpose.
Zaba should be ASSIGNED to him. Show him the ropes on how to be loved!!
