Only Leicester are top half of the table. Poor.

I think that is accurate as far as I know

Yeah i agree it does point to an issue with him. His record in champs league is better but rarely there do we meet packed defences and teams want to come out and play so all our players fair better including GJ
 
Fuck all service yet again yesterday from what I remember.

you are right he got fuck all service - but like has been sid before - the best create ther own which is somethign Jesus rarely does.

He also got a great chance witht he pass back and chose to lay it off for KDB instead of shoot himself - that is worrying

"Rarely does" is a bit of a stretch, every striker needs service. Jesus is in the team to link up play and look for the best opportunity to score even if its not himself, KDB is probably one of the best in the world to shoot from distance so it was hardly him passing back to Gundogan to have a go.
 
This season Jesus has now started 19 PL games, scoring 12 times and assisting 4. Sergio Aguero meanwhile started 18 PL games, scored 14 times and assisted 3 (with zero goals or assists against any of the current top six over six games). So either Sergio has actually just been awful and we need to get rid ASAP also, or it turns out Jesus is just fine and is in fact "good enough". Hard to say.

Yeah they need service but when they have the ball within 20 yards of the goal, a good striker knows in a game against a team who parks the bus, you need to take speculative shots.

Create some terror in the box. Get the defenders moving around blocking shots. Get the keeper parrying the ball back Into the danger area.

When you receive the ball with the back to goal, if you’re an elite striker you know how to turn and shoot at goal without seeing the goal.

Gabby has the talent side of the game. He doesn’t have the self belief.
