Manchester City became one of the best teams in the world and Pep Guardiola had a lot to do with it. The coach managed to get his team to play incredible football, win the admiration of sports lovers and make it a sight to see when they go out on the field of play.
With his weapons and despite the distances that exist between the two campuses, Marcelo Gallardo is trying to find a similar idea and it can be seen with the setup he is having with the squad for this 2022.
river has many midfielders and was reinforced with several players in this transfer market. Ezequiel Barco, Juan Fernando Quintero and Tomás Pochettino were some of those who arrived and joined those who were already on campus.
This abundance of frills, nor coincides with what happens up front. The Millionaire has Julián Álvarez, Braian Romero, Matías Suárez (injured) and then he must go to the Reserve to find Flabian Londoño.
This is no accident. Gallardo is betting on having a team full of flyers, that they have a goal and that they can generate something similar to what happens in Manchester City. In the English team, Guardiola got us used to playing without a classic 9 and strikers with other characteristics fulfill this role.
Many midfielders have played in that position and that is why it is not surprising that Gallardo has declared that he thinks of Jorge Carrascal in that position. It would have been crazy in other times, but this is part of modern football.
Gallardo and Guardiola are two great coaches and they are looking for a similar idea. That the team arrives with the ball on the floor, have a lot of people when attacking and that the goals are divided among several players. For this reason, Julián Álvarez can find an ideal place in Manchester City and there he will be able to find a similar idea.
