Jesus Navas

[domalino]

I'm sad to see him go, but I'm not going to miss seeing him come on as a sub and knowing the game was over.

An under-appeciated part of the team.

No tears will be shed by me. One of the worst attacking wingers I have ever seen and his goal scoring record was a complete joke. "worked hard blah blah" but I'd expect that for £90k a week.

i liked the new role at wing back in the last couple of games but sadly could not cross a hot bun how many times he hit the first man or just turn back and pass it back i think pellegrini killed him and he look great for spain before we signed him but maybe the game in england was not right for him

Called it as soon as I saw him clean shaven against Watford. Last time I remember him without any facial hair was the away game in Sevilla last year.

Another player gone with a superb workrate and flawless professionalism. Best of luck Jesus, you were an important part of the most exciting City team I've ever seen. Thank you.

 

[K-Bo]

Not exactly my favorite City player, just lacked quality overall IMO. But agree with others that he was a consummate pro and did whatever job he was asked to do to the best of his ability. Best of luck returning to Sevilla.

Thought he was showing some promise as a right back so half expected us to keep him.

He was a very good player when we signed him but Pellegrini soon saw to that. Wingers have to take risks; you might fail to beat your man four times, but you still have to go back for a fifth try because that might be the one where you beat him and create a chance. Pellegrini would sooner a winger cut back and pass it back to a midfielder or defender every single time than take the necessary risks; he drilled the winger out of Navas and almost did the same with Sterling, too.

He was no doubt a poor finisher but I think a better player than Pellegrini allowed him to be. Someone with that pace and engine should be running at people, not away from them.

 

[Keeper!]

Great professional , low maintenance and could always be relied upon.

Adios and Good Luck Jesus, thanks for all your effort.

 

[mancitymick]

Gave us his all. That is all we can ask

 

[Tim of the Oak]

Thanks Jesus and good luck for the future. You gave your all and were a model pro. I enjoyed you kicking a few people in your last games at fullback.
