#9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2020/21 Performances

[kaz7]

But I thought scoring goals was all that mattered for strikers. So, good game right?

No, strikers need to score as well as get involved in play , not just the last bit

 

[cartmel blues]

Yet another poor performance from our Brazilian no9.
But...
1.his work rate was amazing
2.he didn’t get any service
3.he’s not a striker
4.he was unlucky when he hit the post
5.his off the ball movement was incredible
6.he’s recovering from COVID-19
7.he’s not Sergio stop comparing him to Sergio.
8.he needs more time
Feel free to borrow one of the above .

As I thought .
the give him a bit more time one is in the lead !

 

[Trojan1962]

Really hope his superbly taken goal tonight will boost his confidence for the rest of the season

 

[Ban-jani]

Needs a pair of bollocks.

Ive defended him a lot on here but he was terrible tonight goal aside.

You literally only post and interact on this thread. Did Gabby call your mum?

Calling out others for trolling. Good one fella.

Nice finish, hopefully gets some decent service on Wednesday.

You seemed to miss from your list that he's scored the winning goal which he indeed took brilliantly. Or what was the problem there, that he was almost offside? :)

 

[OrigamiNinja]

He’s a strange player. I am a massive fan of his and I still believe he has everything to be a top striker. However, his 1v1 finishing is woeful. His “header” in the 1st half was woeful. Then, the hardest chance he has all night, he brings it down like prime Bergkamp and smashes it in. Hopefully the goal gives him a boost of confidence because we need him.

You joined this forum when Gabby joined us and you've only ever asked for tickets or called Gabby shit.. that is your entire post history.

Think the point we are missing is that he created nothing all game against a team 72 places lower. This is supposed to be Sergios replacement , as for the goal yes he took it well as you would hope from a top world class striker !! Does VAR allow his goal or is he offside ? Not sure
Maybe he needs a bit more time !

 

[MarsLlama]

He was bloody awful and then he scored that wonderful goal. Not sure where his ability has gone lately.

True
So what has that got to do with his piss poor performances ?
would you care to stick to the thread please as you are a frequent poster. Or take your grievances with me asking for spare tickets on a spare ticket thread elsewhere or does that upset you as well ?

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Hopefully having scored today will boost his confidence and he can push on and start scoring regularly.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

His goal was well taken but the spell from his miss to that goal, he was completely invisible when we needed something to happen. He isn’t playing well and we need him to find some form quickly.

Nobody on the planet could be Sergio's replacement. Any City fanwould know that Gabby is an additional striker. I don't think anyone in the club, fans included, would ever regard him as an Aguero replacement. And I thought he put a decent game together tonight. Pity about the shot on the post, should have scored, but I have yet to see a single game where G did not give everything he had. No matter what battering he takes he never goes hiding nor missing.

No they couldn’t you are absolutely right. But he has been branded as his replacement for 4 years now and I just think we need to look elsewhere

 

[RayCTID]

Not in top form, but Gabby never hides and it was a excellent finish. Whilst he isn't quite good enough to be world class he still chips in and is worth keeping.

 

[nellyonthewing]

If you put the ball on a plate for him he is OK if he's not offside. As a predatory striker forget it.

So succinct, so truthful.
