City trailed at half-time before beating Red Star Belgrade 3-1.
Guardiola said of Alvarez: “His movement was so quick and he’s so young. What a signing the club have done.
Rodri has developed into one of the best midfielders in the game during his time at City and Guardiola is in no doubt he is now at the top. The downside for City was the loss of Bernardo Silva shortly before half-time with an unspecified injury. The Portuguese joins an injury list that includes Kevin De Bruyne, Jack Grealish, John Stones and Mateo Kovacic.
