9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2021/22 Performances

[Larry Stranger]

Exactly what we've been missing from a winger since Sane left. He has the ability to get behind the defence with his pace and can cross it into a dangerous area. Something none of our other wingers have. Torres can cross it, but can't get behind the defence. Sterling can get behind, but can't cross it. Mahrez and Grealish both invert. As long as we move the ball quickly and get balls in behind Gabby can be valuable this season.

Home, home on the wing, where Gabriel Jesus is king. He was magnificent today. Granted the opposition weren’t up to much but that’s what we might get if we stop trying to convince ourselves he’s a striker.

Great player, great attitude, unfairly criticised in my opinion. Would start for almost every top team in Europe. Glad he showed his true potential today, love the guy. Perhaps some people can actually see the bigger picture after today.

Many don’t rate him as our main striker, if he can build a career with us on the wing then brilliant. Didn’t go today sadly but heard how great he was which is good to hear.

As they play in different positions then err no

 

[the plasterer]

Him and walker down that right hand side was just sublime, admittedly not the best opposition but them pair looked perfect, thought we were much better than when ffs plays down that flank

 

[Edwardio]

Thought he was was brilliant today! Good to see.

Jesus taking Bernardos place

I kinda see what you are talking about. Kane coming in and moving Gabby to the right with Mahrez. Bernie can play in multiple positions so he will be missed in other areas of the pitch but if Jack, phil and Kev play it leave no room but the right.

Maybe it’s been decided that Jesus will play on the right if Bernie leaves. He offers us a direct approach that has been missed since sane. If Kane is out then he can also play central.

A winger display that included some bite,purpose and substance,very refreshing and he looks right at home there.

 

[ScottSinclair]

It will genuinly piss me off if he doesnt get a long run in the team as a winger now

 

[Mr. Wednesday]

Like a few others, just waiting for something to click with him and see him push on and become the genuinely world class player he undoubtedly can be. Very pleased for him today.
