9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2021/22 Performances

Although funnily enough, if there is another one we may have him in Foden. I think having Jesus, Foden, Bernardo, Rodri/Fernandinho, KDB (when fully fit), Cancelo, Walker, Laporte, and Dias all in the same team is really transformative to our pressing game.

Yes, Foden is exceptional. Had Foden and Jesus started in Paris, we'd have probably won. But Pep was probably right to rotate them, given how much we rely on their pressing and energy vs teams like Liverpool. It was an incredibly difficult week and we couldn't play our current best XI in all three games.

But I thought Curtis Jones runs rings around Foden?

I reckon so, and I think that’s what will happen at home to Paris

Happy for the lad. Was never a centre forward, and said it from early on. Finally seems like he's finding his feet and becoming comfortable. Really looking forward to seeing what he can produce.

Will he be back for the Burnley game?

If he's not vaccinated, he'll miss more than Burnley

Genius assist for Foden's 2nd.
