Gabriel Jesus | Joins Arsenal for £45m

In addition, it looks from outside that the Brazilian technical director may have had a big influence on this as well.

It's ex player Edu isn't it?

I love the headline in the Mirror. Gabriel Jesus'namazing journey from painting streets to Arsenal star.


Aye ok, the 11 trophies as a 4 time EPL Champion is not worth mentioning, signing for 5th placed Arsenal is clearly the climax in that journey then.

I remember another Mirror back page....

Compare and contrast with the Benteke headline!

Sports media, clickbait whores.

Jesus was a rarity. An exemplary professional on and off the pitch.
He always gave 100% and bonded with the fans.
I still think we sold the wrong player but hey ho-good luck Gabby.

Treasure your Premier league winners medals Gabby lad.
They're more than likely the last ones you'll receive.

I could definitely see him helping them to get top four again, if they get Raphinha and Martinez too (a big if, admittedly). League Cup and F.A. Cup medals are certainly in the mix, as well. Champions, though? Not in the near future.

Anyone with the slightest understanding of the game knows what Merson is getting at there.

Agreed he just got his words all mixed up as usual.

Ha ha don’t worry mate of course I am ,just an attempt at being funny , been a long day so not sure if you are being sarky

No, no, no I wasn’t being sarky I promise. I’m very gullible and because I’m on mY iPhone and can’t see the bit that says who you support I thought I’d made a mistake. :-)

Anyone with the slightest understanding of the game knows what Merson is getting at there.

I take it you have more than the slightest understanding of the word condescending?

 

[The Black Shed]

I know it's crazy money, but £45m for a proven PL forward, who scores goals, has won the title, played in high-pressure games, is still young, relatively injury free and plays up top with Neymar for Brazil... is a bit on the cheap side.

 

[wolviedinho]

Oh I put like because I thought you were thanking him for wearing the only shirt in the world that matters…..Manchester City!
:-)

It’s nice to have a bit of civility in the thread @Eccles Blue amongst the unregulated drivel :-)
