Gabriel Jesus - 2016/17 Performances - Palmeiras win the league title

[Bruun]

Often likes to drop deep and then sprint to the box while hoping to beat the offside trap.

#1 take away so far.... He's great at getting into positions to score goals. Made 3 or 4 nice runs.

Robbie Earle on NBC has been going on about him. (in a positive way)

 

[RandomJ]

His movement is top class. Just wait till he has Silva and Kev providing the service for him.

He was impressive in that half, great skill, great pace and seems to always end up in a goal scoring position. With slightly better finishing he could have had a hat-trick.

Biggest thing that stands out; he's an emotional guy and wants to win. That's a trait of a top player. We've missed that intensity recently so it's great to see our new lad doesn't.

Agreed. You could see it on his face what that goal meant to him

Needs to be controlled. He's an intense fucker no doubt.

Atttttta boy! Finally playing more in his position and he looks a real threat.

I hope city fans understand that this kid is not (yet) a striker. We have bought a winger that scores goals.

Totally agree he looks so much more comfortable playing wide so he can get on the ball and then drift in from there. Great pace and touch shown so far.

A bit unlucky not to get a penalty there our Gabriel.

You can control it but it's much better than not caring at all.
