I think he has had a decent season. Injury derailed it slightly and will take time for him to mentally recover. He is a real talent and one for the future.
Aguero would have struggled in the past couple of games against teams that were so defensive. He gets too isolated at times and Pep loves using the width of the pitch which means we occassionally lose Jesus' asset of great one touch pass and move play. Doing that more would create more room too, he wants to come deep from a no.9 to a no.10 role with players linking with him and we should try to encourage that more.
You would get that with 3 at the back amd Sterling playing more centrally with him. You don't when de bruyne and silva play as they want to stay behind the ball creating things for others generally.
I think he has had a decent season but still prefer Aguero in the biggest of games as he always seems to produce.
Jesus has had a few injuries so far in his fledgling career and although I think he is a decent player I cannot say I am as convinced as others about him.
Does he deserve 100k, I do not think any player is worth it but looking at the going rate for players and our wage structure you can see why he would demand it.
