#9 | Gabriel Jesus - 2020/21 Performances

Keep him and play him out wide. Put Torres up front.

 

[Plain Speaking]

Assist vs. Paraguay

He seems to be playing with number 7 on his back there? Has he changed number?

Number 7 is Richarlison

Number 7 is Richarlison

Thanks, so it was Jesus that provided the cross, not sure if Richarlson's shot was deflected, or he missed it? And Neymar finished. The video image was hard to see clearly and couldn't understand the commentary, cheers!

Thanks, so it was Jesus that provided the cross to Richarlson, who's shot was deflected to Neymar, who finished. The image was quite small and couldn't understand the commentary, cheers!

Correct, though neither Richarlison nor the defender touched the ball, it went between them. Jesus got the assist

Followed up with very good pressing and hustle, Paraguay pinned back comically.

The sooner Pep realizes hes a winger the better.

Still annoyed that we were robbed of this from the Everton game when we got a red card, Torres was playing striker and was sacrificed.

It's quite rare I think, that 2 players in their normal positions swap, and imo BOTH play better after the swap.

Regardless of what happens in the transfer window, I think Jesus must be retained (Ferran obviously will be because we jsut bought him), if someone else has to be sacrificed then so be it (seems like Bernardo wants to go).

Seen glimpses of it but he may just be a better winger than striker. A different type of winger but a winger nonetheless.

His best ever game in a City shirt (away at Madrid in 2020) was out on the left.
