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.

Fair points pal but I love Gabby's attitude, never less than 100% on the pitch.
 
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.
 
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
 
Messi's lucky he was suspended for the Copa America final.. that's all I'll say about that
 
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
Foden, Kane, Jesus (if he can continue having games like he did on Saturday) with Kev and Grealish knocking in balls behind them sounds pretty ideal to me. Not just for the attacking options but as a press as well which I have heard less about but was very strong on Saturday.
 
Not been on here in a few days, so I’m a bit late in saying this, but what a performance from this guy on Saturday.

Like a few on here, I’ve always wondered why he’s not been played consistently as a wide player. That’s where he played in Brazil and it suits his attributes perfectly.

Having a right footed player on the right wing was a breath of fresh air. His crossing ability is something that, until now, I hadn’t seen picked out. He’s also strong - I think we’ve been too used to seeing wide players getting pushed off the ball in recent seasons.

This guy is still something special, and if we play him consistently on the wing, I think he’ll have a breakthrough season
 
It's good to see that the noises about Jesus's future are more positive as of now.
He will not be going anywhere now and has now become our most important player this season and will be wrapped in cotton wool as we can’t afford an injury with him
 
Seems to me like Jesus and Ronaldo would have a natural synergy. Jesus can start in the middle doing the pressing and link up play he does so well, then move out wide as Ronaldo comes off his wing.

Plus we know Jesus likes to get the ball into the box from the wide areas, which Ronaldo would feed off.
 

I'm sure he said that, that site is so full of bullshit it is unbelievable but often posted in here as fact, all they do is regurgitate any rubbish that is printed about the club.

Go on Twitter make up a rumour and wait, it will eventually appear on cityextra, they got blocked pretty sharp.
