Gabriel Jesus joins Arsenal

[Moss Side's Finest]

Scored the same amount of goals as him this season, haaland is good but jesus is proven

Hmmmm

Jesus (and Zin) both absolutely class again yesterday.

I really fucking miss the pair of em.

Jesus and Zin will benefit from playing in matches where the opponent have not camped out in their own half. Never any doubt they were both stars.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Good move for them and great to see them enjoying themselves. Want to see more of the same when they play the likes of Liverpool.

I like Arteta and hope Arsenal stick with him. He's pretty early in his managerial career and he needs the time and freedom to develop his own style, try stuff out and make mistakes.

I think that with that talented young Arsenal squad and a supportive board whose expectations are steady improvement, he's in the place he needs to be right now.

If Pep were to leave next summer, I don't think Arteta is ready. But if Pep gives us a few more years then Arteta may well be in the running. It's worth monitoring how he does, anyway.

I think the board are right to stick by him, but there's no escaping the fact he and his team absolutely bottled the end of last season. All well and good talking about how happy the players are and how good he makes them in August when the sun is still out and you've won your first two games, need to see what happens in the big games later in the year.

He wouldn't be there for more than 2 seasons, next stop is Madrid as Benzema's replacement. Arsenal got a very good deal here and they would make at least 75m when they sell him to Madrid.

Yep. Jesus is a fine player and his attitude is first class. But at our level he was a bit short. Let’s see how he and the rest of this Arsenal team do if they’re in contention for the big prizes as we get further into the season.

Had the same honeymoon period for us.. rocked up here and got 7 goals and 4 assists in 8 starts.

I absolutely love Gabby. Best pressing forward I've seen in a City shirt, never gave less than 100% and never kicked up a fuss when he wasn't in the team.

But reality was whilst I'd rather still have him here it was the right move for all party's involved.
We get a decent fee for a striker who was like 20xg under his expected goals for us. Gabby gets to be the main man in a team potentially on the rise again surrounded by international teammates and people he's already familiar with.
Arsenal get a prem proven front man for a decent fee who instantly improved their side.

I honestly hope he and Zinny excel there.

 

[Keeper!]

Delighted for Jesus a great guy, but before everyone gets carried away let's see his and Arsenal's reaction when they hit a bit of bad form/performances, everything is going well so far, typical Arsenal, but as we have seen over the last decade after a poor result the proverbial wheels come off.

Absolutely spot on, using Arsenal as a stepping stone.
