Nets brace Alvarez scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 3-1 victory against Burnley.

Impact Alvarez recorded his first Premier League brace of the season Wednesday, finding the net just six minutes apart after scoring in the 16th minute off of a Matheus Nunes assist and again in the 22nd off of a Kevin De Bruyne assist. The Argentine now has 14 goal contributions in League play this season, notching eight goals and six assists. He will hope to still maintain a normal role within the squad moving forward, as with De Bruyne and Erling Haaland both back in the side, his minutes may start to dwindle after being a regular starter all season.

Impact Alvarez was not able to get on the scoresheet for the third match in a row Saturday but still managed to put on another masterclass in place of the injured Erling Haaland (foot), notching an immaculate six shots, five crosses and four chances created in the attack. He also had another contest with an immense amount of corner kicks, taking 10 in the win, not only leading the team in that stat but also the league with his 94. The Argentinian's role may start to be hindered once Erling Haaland returns, as Kevin De Bruyne also made his return to play Saturday, which will most likely take starting time away from Alaverz, who was serving as an attacking midfielder while De Bruyne was out and is now back in his normal forward position that Haaland is out. However, until then, expect Alvarez to continue his excellence, as he has been one of the most lethal players in the Premier League while going slightly under the radar.

Scores off bench Alvarez scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Tuesday's 3-2 victory against RB Leipzig.

Impact Alvarez came off the bench and found the back of the net during Tuesday's comeback win. It was an impressive showing from the Argentine star, who is growing into his role as one of the best in the world this season. He may not get the plaudits of Erling Haaland or Kevin de Bruyne but make no mistake, Alvarez is an elite option in all formats and against all opponents.

Dominate in draw Alvarez assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 4-4 draw against Chelsea.

Battling fitness issues Alvarez played 18 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's match against Young Boys because "he could not play 90 minutes," according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact Alvarez had a ton of minutes on his legs the first couple months of the season, including with Argentina over the international breaks. Because of that, he's seen his time dwindle a bit, coming off the bench in each of the last two UCL contests in addition to only going 68 minutes in the loss to Arsenal. For the upcoming Manchester derby, he seems like an option to be subbed off early, though he should still be in play for at least 80 or so minutes.

Notches another elite performance Alvarez scored one goal and assisted once from one shot and one chance created in Wednesday's 3-1 win over RB Leipzig.

Impact Alvarez once again was the star of a Manchester City win, scoring and assisting a goal in the win. The attacker did all of this in only a couple of minutes on the pitch after appearing as a substitute in the 79th minute. He gained his first contribution in the 84th minute by scoring to take the lead and earned his second when he found Jeremy Doku in the 92nd minute for an additional goal. Alvarez now has 10 goal contributions in all competitions this season and continues to amaze in his new position.

Impact Alvarez sparked what looked to be a comeback for Manchester City when he curved a free kick into the net to equalize the game in the 58th minute. Alvarez now has a goal contribution in all but two of City's eight games this season and looks to be their most clinical player as of right now. Pep Guardiola looks to have worked his magic again as Alvarez looks more comfortable in his new attacking midfielder role than he did at striker, already notching eight goal contributions through eight games after only having 14 all of last season.

Impact Alvarez had a decent outing in 57 minutes of play, registering one tackle, three crosses and four shots in the win.

It was easily the Argentine's least productive game of the season after getting off to a flying start in the first couple of matches, already notching five goal contributions in the Premier League this campaign. He is yet to miss a start in all competitions this season and should remain a starter especially with Kevin De Bruyne out injured until December and multiple other teammates out with small knocks.

He may have been very lucky with his second goal, but ultimately, he earned it after firing eight shots (five on goal) in the win. He also was productive outside of his goals, notching seven chances created and seven crosses. The Argentinian has started to come on since being moved to attacking midfielder and looks to be one of Manchester City's most important playmakers for this Champions League campaign.
