My man alrdy won everything. Let him explore La Liga next.
Pep would be an idiot to sell alvarez ?
Alvarez won all the possible trophies he could win. Now it's time for new adventures where he would get more valued, feel important and be more influential and improve as well as a player.
Alvarez suited for Barca as well.
LOL! Dan is just something else🤣🤣🤣
Craig giving Dan dat look 😅😅
Atletico don't have the money to buy him. So I see a 2-year loan which is a win-win situation for all.
1. Julian will get minutes
2. City can easily retain him from small clubs like Atletico, rather than from Barca, Chelsea, etc
3. Atletico will hope Samu Omorodion to take over after 2 years.
Something else that needs to be factored in with Julian Alvarez is that he is very close with his family, and his brother plays for a non-league team in Manchester. Would his brother have the same opportunity in Madrid? Might he stay for another season for his brother?
Barca should be all over this Alvarez situation. What’s wrong with the people running that club ? Smh
If the pay is not that far, he should go to A. Madrid. He will be competing against Mbappe, Vini, Lamal and on top he would he the face of Atletico. Those Derby's would be great to watch again.
Sergio Aguero and Atletico Madrid. I see the link to Julian Alvarez with Atletico.
This guy will end up at Chelsea just wait, it will be a shock move for everyone as the the main striker next session, screen shot and thank me later
Pep always sell players that wanna leave
Pep would leave by the end of this season and Alvarez has won it all so he might be young but he might still be due a new challenge
That was very rude. Why he did that
He'll stay because some players are getting old De Bruyne might leave soon so new positions will be open.
he should go asap than waste his career in bench
Athletics is a grave years under that fraud Simeoni…he must he intimidating the owners I to constantly extending his contract because there are no football reasons for it
Dan is so disrespectful to guests
I just don't get Alvarez. He is not very fast. He can't go past defenders. He can't make any clever or difficult passes. He does not score many great goals. His only discernible skills for me are his pressing and tireless workrate, However I can't deny his numbers – 32 goals + assists in a season are excellent.
But still I wonder how well he will perform without the font of creativity that others players in City or Argentine national team provide.
AupaAtleti
If Craig calls you out for being disrespectful, I guess you really were.
pls go to barca
Good for the Alvarez, maybe I just mean maybe he can go for the balloon oidr…
Would be something, Alvarez been so not smart to renew again, dont get it. Atleti could be nice with Le Normand, Alvarez, Ceballos and a speedy solid winger.
He can make a legacy if he goes there.. win the UCL
No please no no no no
Huge Alvarez fan, would love him to come to Real Madrid
I think the negative press that he just got for racist. Chant will probably let him go.
I like the move, go to Aleti, be a starter and try to make history 🍻
Dan Thomas, super rude despite being an ant talking to a giant like Sid Lowe
I hope he has got nothing to do with the racist incident recently. The current lot of active players from Argentina needs a lot of education and reformed before finding places in elite clubs.
I can understand him leaving but don't go to Atletico.
Dan’s personal life must be in shambles and therefore has a need to take it out on the nicest folks on FC. First he disrespects Sebastian and now behaves rudely with Sid. Someone needs to set him straight.
That left eye twitch from Dan the second time he asks Sid to answer is pretty clear he knew what he was doing there… Uncalled for and plain rude…
I would leave
Alvarez can go to Arsenal you know he wants to play week in week out and arsenal needs a striker. It's the perfect match for both parties arsenal will get a player in their squad who has won it all and you know he can score you goals and Alvarez will get what he wants and that's playing for the starting 11 week in week out.
What a stupid way to cut Sid who it's one of the few fellas that actually have balanced opinions regarding players, legaues and more.
What do these guys really expect ? You gone to a club that has money to burn who buys everyone ,then this happen. Going to psg ,man city and chelsea is a serious gamble
De paul and alvarez will be good at AM
Wow Dan😂😂You can see Craig and Sid did not like that
Not being the preferred strike and scoring 19 goals and 13 assists is crazy stats.
We want strong at Madrid who can beat barca real and girona😉
