Because Grealish cant play, I'd like to see Charly up front.

I’m just curious what exactly anyone is seeing to think Alcaraz can play as a striker

tenacious and agile like a young and nimble julian alvarez

 

[Swartzy]

Alcaraz is the player that changes slow precise build up to a quick instinctive direct approach, he's the perfect balance for our system and his positioning. Using him as a striker and his game is lost.

He puts in effort he has scored goals he is quicker than both current options, Why not try it out? Do you see it being any worse an option than Barry and Beto?

Not going in with high expectations for this one, but we've scrapped out a couple draws in the last few years here so you never know.

Genuinely yes

 

[RomanReigns]

He’s a more prolific goal scorer than the two duds currently occupying the position

 

[TheBigIguana]

He’s a more prolific goal scorer than the two duds currently occupying the position

But not from taking up the positions he’d have to take up as a striker

 

[Tipp blue]

But not from taking up the positions he’d have to take up as a striker

I think he'd be better at getting into position to get a goal than the other two, From what I've seen Barry and Beto want the ball played to them and are not bothered moving into better position for this to happen Barry slightly more guilty of this than Beto.

Pickford GK
Coleman RB
Mykolenko LB
CB Tarkwoski
CB O'Brien
CM Garner
CM Gueye
LW Ndiaye
AM KDH
RW Alcaraz
ST Beto

That's what I think Moyes will go for.

 

[Connor mcloud]

Everton arrive with quiet defiance, burdened by little but lifted by belief. There is steel in our stride and a whisper of mischief in the wind.....enough, perhaps, to trouble the kings for a moment.

Yet City play like time itself - measured, certain, and cruel. One lapse, one breath too slow, and the moment is gone. Everton may stir the storm, but the calm that follows may be a light blue sky.

Still… football is a strange old beast. If the bar gets rattled, the ref looks kindly, and Pickford channels something biblical, well, why not? Stranger things have happened on a soggy Saturday.

3-0 City

Haaland is a cheat code, can only see one winner.
