#9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2019/20 Performances

[Sergio<3]

hes not shit just not suited to being the focal point of an account hes either a wide striker or hes a good foil for sane and sterling when we play the three together where he doesnt need to lead the attack

He's Brazil's first choice number 9, should know how to lead the line, should at least know the offside rule by now anyway

 

[Ardwick Green Blue]

You would struggle to say he has shown any sign of improvement since he joined us. I'd say he has gone backwards as then he looked likely to score whereas now he doesn't. As an investment he will be OK as even now I would say we would make a profit on him but as far as him becoming our main striker I'd say no chance.

As I've said previously, he reminds me of Dirk Kuyt.

He complimented Fernando Torres but wasn't a great striker himself.

I still can't believe he was labelled as the new Ronaldo, what an insult. By the man himself also.

he plays on the right wing for brazil mostly

 

[RayCTID]

I do like Gabby but he has got to step up.

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Even Mpenza scored at St. James Park.

 

[Blue Hefner]

We righty slag off Marrial and Particularly Rashford for being bang average/fair weather players but our boy isn’t doing much better

At least Rashford is quick, can kick the ball hard are shoots. I know that is very basic stuff but Jesus doesn’t look a threat when on the pitch

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

The biggest issue is that i think at the minute any striker would struggle in our team

We condense the pitch to the extent that it restricts the space in which a striker can play. So what you get is having to consistently start thinking about staying onside all the time. And trying to find a pocket of space in a totally congested area

didnt do himself any favours when he spurned the only decent chance he got though

I honestly think that mbappe would struggle with how we are currently trying to break teams down at the minute

Instead of pushing the opposition team into their own half maybe we should start trying to drag them out to allow larger areas of space to work with

 

[Tevez City]

Hopefully he will learn from it.
