I think they have similar ability and strengths on the ball, and I wouldn't narrow down either player so much, particularly Alzate who has played numerous positions for us. But you are not alone in being baffled by my opinion.
I think Alzate can play further forward, and has done for us, agree that he is better at winning the ball than Sarmiento, and Sarmiento maybe is a better dribbler, but both seem to have the same ability to receive a ball in a tight position, step round a player or two and lay it off.
I don't see...
Maybe Alzate coming back has affected the thinking here, I think they are players with similar attributes, and with Alzate now 24, and a year of contract left, excluding any additional option year (I think?), he needs to have a season here and make an impact, or move on. I am hoping we see a lot...
