#9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2020/21 Performances

[cartmel blues]

Except for winning the penalty and making the first goal

With the ball he is poor
Without it he is average if you want someone to look busy all game sign Mo Farah ! He won’t score either

 

[AlexGrimaldo]

We need a top striker. Jesus is not that man and he will never be.

 

[alexmcity]

Very good today. Created the goal, won the pen, worked very hard off the ball.

He and Sterling had to play both in attack and midfield due to the strange formation designed to accommodate Aguero.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Don't tell me .......... he put a shift in?

Are you being deliberately obtuse, given that Jesus created the goal and won the pen?

Posssibly.
I really don't rate him though.
Many do - I get that.

I actually voted him for man of the match to be honest. Not that he was brilliant or anything but the best of a bad bunch.

That's fair.

I haven't posted about him this game, but after thinking about it, he was probably just as influential as Sterling in this game.

The problem was the players around him (Mendy, Cancelo, Ferran, Aguero) offering nothing going forward.

He needs moved to the wing. It is not a negative reflection on the lad but he is more effective when running the channels.

He is not a cf imo. Ran his bollox off again and tired towards the end which led to sloppy passing. He is an example of a good squad player.

 

[cartmel blues]

The only place he needs moving to is Serie A and quick

 

[MeatHunterrr]

He is pointless player. Non-scoring striker.

Fucking get some one who can score and run, surely we can find one.

This^^

 

[Paul1970]

I’ve never rated him to be our main striker if I’m being honest and he never will. Can’t fault his work rate as he tries but he is just not good enough to be at Man City.

 

[cartmel blues]

This^^

So he’s a winger this week ?
ffs why can’t people just accept he is poor and get him moved on we have done it with better players before now

This thread should be Gabriel Jesus 2020/1 Under Performances

 

[Phil1]

Not had a great season overall. Been some good performances scattered amongst a lot of fairly average but if he wants to stake a place in this team we need much more than workrate.
Certainly wouldn't be looking to sell, he's a great option to have on the bench and play the less important games.

 

[pudge]

He may still be on the pitch taking touches

Didn’t we buy him as a striker

 

[clarion]

He did well today.

 

[Lavinda Past]

8/10 for effort
4/10 for impact

One of our better 'performers' today - That's how poor we were.
