9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2021/22 Performances

[Craig]

We’ve been missing a player with some balls on the wing for ages. It’s mad that we can pick faults with an incredible City team, but we’re far to passive on the wings. Jesus gave us a direct option today. He actually reminded me of Sterling when he played on the right.

Only one who generally plays like Jesus did today is Foden

I posted this could be Gabby's "breakout" season, he was kin brilliant, alongside Eric and Bernie we have three fantastic players that any team in the world would accommodate, superb, well done Jesus, I'll happily live without seeing another signing this season.

Still think we desperately need a striker as the champions league final and last week showed. Brilliant performance from Jesus and hopefully he gets a run of games out wide and produces more of the same. Lets be honest though that shambolic Norwich defence resembled cones for the most part.

If we did get Kane I think Jesus on the right would be perfect. He’s not selfish and he suits the wing so much, very direct loads of energy space to run into etc. A front 3 of Foden Kane Jesus sounds pretty good to me

Fair points pal but I love Gabby's attitude, never less than 100% on the pitch.

Never understood why Jesus gets negativity on this forum, you only
have to look at his goals per game ratio and work ethic going forward
and defending.
If he does need to improve in one area, then it’s not straying offside.

It was nice seeing right footed attacker on the right.

Stick to it Pep

Give him a run of games there and he have a chance to own the position.

It offers a completely different approach. I find having two wingers cutting in slightly boring. Having one of the other is a lot more exciting.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

He's skilful, he tenacious and he's pretty quick. The "weakness" in his armoury is his finishing. Too many slaps, drags and scuffs. Bar that curling nugget at Turf Moor I don't think I've seen him score from more than about 12 yards out. If we can fashion regular performances out wide from him like yesterday's however, then it's trebles all round

This. Missed that right footed crossing…

Messi's lucky he was suspended for the Copa America final.. that's all I'll say about that

Who knew he should be a winger, erm most of us , keep up pep
