It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

No. Jesus is a great squad player and very useful to us, especially in certain games. He’s underrated IMO.

We just need him competing with someone world class, like Mbappe or Haaland. Dybala is too inconsistent.

I'd be able to enjoy Jesus more if I knew he wasn't in the team primarily to score goals. His record is great admittedly but the amount of chances he misses - or passes up - is hard to look past.

A striker at that age should be fearless in front of goal but he's the opposite. Even his latest goal away at Leicester, no way he should be passing that to Sterling when he was 1v1 with Schmeichel.

I'd be happier with Jesus if he was a winger given the ability he has to run at player and his workrate but then get into instinctive goalscoring positions (like Sterling does and like Jesus did vs Real away last season) as opposed to being our primary goal threat.

In short, as I suggested last summer, they were never really interested in him as a player. He was a political pawn for bartomeu to claim he brings academy (sorry, cantera) kids back. Different politician now, different interests.

Would you swap Jesus for Dyabla? latest rumblings on the the twattersphere.

No. It’s a huge asset to have such a high-pressing, hustling striker in our squad. And one that can play in the wider positions too. It would be a terrible swap imo.

Does anything come after a trillion. The only thing I can think if is loads of trillions.
