We look so good when he’s our striker. He doesn’t need to score goals. He allows the team to build through the middle and maintain possession - which is huge for the style of play Arteta wants.
“I am so shit” -
Tammy AbrahamGabriel JesusIdgaf, cause when he’s on with us, the team’s on a different level. None other like him.
I believe in Jesus, the Arsenal number 9.
Thank you Gabriel Jesus, we noticed. What I don’t notice is the strong point of anyone playing in this team. What a freaking mess. We had Guimarães as a playmaker, Rodrygo playing in Neymar’s role, Jesus doing God knows what, Veiga as a right winger crossing balls to Endrick, which is like the height of Romário.
No one is actually playing their real role and we are a discombobulated atrocity on the pitch. We managed one shot on target after going down 1-0. Ridiculous.
The thing with Jesus is if he had average finishing he’d be the best striker in the world.
He’s world class at literally everything else a false 9 does.
Anyone who thinks Arsenal is better off without him than with him obviously doesn’t watch us. It’s not a coincidence he has been hurt all year and we’ve struggled in the attack.
He hadn’t even played in a month and wasn’t fully fit and Diniz said he wanted to bring him to Brazil to “assess” him and “train with the team” and he plays a full 90 last night. We saw it coming a mile away too.
As I’ve been saying for some time, we need to buy a proper goal-scoring striker.
But if you ask Arsenal fans he is the next Messi / Ronaldo 🤷♀️
✌️
He’s not that kind of striker
Selfish or selfless, there is no try
He’s a great player but it’s just such a hard position to fit him into. He’s been good at arsenal but they obviously need a 9 (personally think they should try trossard more) but it’s becoming obvious why City sold him. He’s too good not to play but he also is hard to fit into a system unless you have two very good inside forwards (I’m talking Salah and mane sort of levels)
Him in a two striker partnership would be really interesting like at Inter
We’ve been saying this for like 4 years now but no one seemed to listen lol
He’s one of those players at club level that will score a flurry of goals in a few games in a row and then not score for ages, but most of the time he is at least making contributions on the field in other ways
I’ve said it since arsenal signed him, he’s not the player they need in the position he wants to player
Arsenal should go all out for toney in Jan, he’s a difference make for arsenal (hopefully they fail in Their pursuit)
