Pepe Guardiola has explained how Julian Alvarez has been able to adapt so quickly to life at Manchester City.
Although Alvarez — who arrived at City this summer after spending the second half of last season on loan in Argentina — has started just one of City's six Premier League matches this term, the Argentine striker has impressed supporters and Guardiola alike with his performances.
The 22-year-old changed the dynamic of the 4-2 comeback win against Crystal Palace, and then scored a superb brace when he was promoted to the starting line-up a few days later against Nottingham Forest. Guardiola has mentioned on numerous occasions how surprised he and his coaching staff are by the quality of Alvarez and how quickly he has settled into the team, given the quality difference between Argentine football and the Premier League.
