Manchester City wants to win several championships this season, the club is fighting to win the Champions League, Premier League and the FA CUP, the team has a great squad with great players like Erling Haaland, Jack Grealish and Kevin de Bruyne. Footballers who are wanted by several clubs in Europe.

Pep Guardiola's goal this season is to win the Champions League, this is the tournament that Manchester City has never been able to lift. The owners of this team are obsessed with being European champions. The Spanish coach is a disciplined person who has won several championships in his career.

Guardiola does not have confidence in the Argentine forward, Julián Álvarez, in several games he leaves him with the substitutes and does not give him the opportunity to play but this footballer has shown great performance and has scored 14 goals this season. This player is the ideal substitute for Erling Haaland.

In the FA CUP semifinals against Sheffield United, Pep Guardiola surprised in his line-up and decided that Julián Álvarez and Erling Haaland would play this match together. The Spanish coach rarely plays with two forwards in his game system.

Guardiola's bad gesture with Álvarez

In the first half of this match, Julián had a good performance and was the most dangerous player in Manchester City. In the last minutes, the rivals committed a penalty and the coach decided that Mahrez would take this foul, not allowing Álvarez to score. This shows that Pep still does not trust the Argentine striker.
