Man City: 5 Reasons Alvaro Negredo Will Be A Success

3. Strength

Negredo is a strong, powerful forward with an explosive left foot. Defenders struggle to handle his presence in and around the penalty area, which is where he bags most of his goals. He is also a handful at set pieces, using his strength to push past opponents and get himself in the right positions to score goals. In the Premier League, there are many defenses considered to be 'vulnerable', including those of top teams such as Arsenal. City may just have the perfect man to take advantage of that.
