That can give the other options a lift because they see the standard being set.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018For me, Alvarez would be a great addition to the squad. There will always be people coming and going in the summer because it\u2019s a big squad and they can\u2019t keep everyone happy. But Alvarez would be a fantastic option to have with his pace and what we saw at Man City.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It was always going to be difficult for him playing with Erling Haaland there but when he did start and when he did play, he was always lively.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018He\u2019s a young man too, so if he\u2019s available it\u2019s a yes for me.
