And Alvarez rarely plays? He has 4 goals already only one behind Messi so both contending for the golden boot along with Mbappe.

I guess he meant barely plays for Man City. However, he's made 14 appearances for City so far this season. Not bad for a 22-year-old's first season in the Premier League, having previously only played in Argentina.

I reckon we'll see a fair bit more of him in future.

The beat of Lionel Messi's last dance has been set by Alexis Mac Allister and his terrier-like qualities… the Brighton midfielder is supporting Argentina's No 10 just as his dad Carlos did for Maradona in 1994​

Carlos Mac Allister made 3 appearances for Argentina in the qualifiers for the 94 World Cup. He didn’t make the WC squad and Maradonna was sent home in disgrace after failing a drug test. So I’d say it’s nothing like what Alexis is doing now for Messi.

When we were there junior played in the daily football thing they did, similarly was mostly argies and brazilians. They just kept asking him whether that Donatello was any good and where was he from :laugh:
Hope your family holiday wasn’t the nexus for some recent unfortunate staffing issues!

Mac is one of those players that I really wouldn't mind if he left in January. Not because I don't rate him - he's a wonderful player, but because he has been a total gent his entire time here. I don't actually believe in the idea of players owing clubs anything and I'd never stand in the way of a player wanting to progress their career. For me, the only move he'd make is to a bigger and better club and he deserves that. It will happen eventually and I wish him all the luck in the world.
Agree with all of that, except the January bit. End of the season at the earliest. And not to Chelsea.

To be fair,he said "better club", which discounts Chelsea are they are plastic fickle boorish twunts. I hate them.
Problem is that there's maybe five clubs that could pay the required money for Ali Mac: United, City, PSG, Chelsea and Newcastle. Possibly Real, Spurs and Arsenal, and maybe Liverpool after the owner change. But not a lot of options. Some years ago I'd say he'd logically move to Juve, Milan or Inter but none of those have any resources.

Such a shame that it's a (rather good) DM article. So many NSCers will never get to read it! If only it was in The S*n! :lolol:

Basically just a lazy rip-off of the interview with Carlos Mac Allister that was published in the Guardian last week.

I'm not convinced his qualities are 'terrier like'. He's more a ball player than a tackler. Closer to Modric than Makelele in my opinion. He just looks terrier like because of the ginger beard.

If he's not starting at The Valley a week tomorrow he can f*** right off as far as I'm concerned.
Joking aside, he should be on the subs bench. Important game and might be needed for the last half hour if it's not going to plan.
