Despite his great performance, the news that disappointed Julian Alvarez at Manchester City

Julian Alvarez is one of the Manchester City players who is having an important start to the season. The player has slipped into Pep Guardiola's starting lineup and the reality is that he is responding in a great way. In his last month, the player participated in many scores directly or indirectly. This allowed him to be nominated for the player of the month award in the Premier League. However, he failed to win the award.

The Argentine forward has three goals and four assists in seven games in the English league. A good part of those achievements were achieved in the month of September, where he scored two goals and provided two assists. And with those numbers, of course, the Argentine earned the nomination as the best Premier League player of that month. However, the English competition confirmed the winner of said award and it was precisely Mohamed Salah who took the prize.

Salah has been at an important level for many years, despite the fact that he has had better seasons than others. However, the reality is that he is one of the most lethal forwards in the world. His ability to unbalance rival defenses with his speed and dribbling, as well as his scoring ability, make him a constant threat in attack. Therefore, he remains a total threat in the Premier League and this makes him a key player for his team.

Manchester City must win against Arsenal

The team led by Guardiola will face Arsenal next Sunday for the eighth round of the Premier League. One of the best duels that the weekend will have since the Citizens lead the league with 18 points and the Gunners are just one point away from catching them. Now, the citizen club hopes to establish itself in an important way in one of the most anticipated matches of the season. The reality is that the club is not having the best of starts, but it is enough to be at the top of the standings.
