Not so loud, A-M is still in the process of convincing themselves this is R9 2.0

 

[TheKippaxYears]

Thank you brother! I send my good wishes to you and the other 9 fans City have around the world.

We're a close-knit community…

 

[bergholt]

Honestly this guy would combine well with DCL

Lock this please @A__G the master has spoken.

Useful advice for @GDeep™ - every day is a school day…

 

[Game Over]

Been consistent with my thoughts on Jesus since we were first linked to him - he’s an improvement on what we had last season but not the 20-25 goal answer we were hoping for.

If he can play in that Man City side, with unparalleled creativity feeding him, and come away with 10-15 goals per season - he’s unlikely to start banging in 20+ under Arteta’s rigid system.

However, he does have good creative numbers and at only 25, maybe his finishing and goal numbers can improve. Our front 3 has potential to be very interchangeable and exciting too, if Arteta will loosen up on his rigidity.

Not to sound all negative, I’m sure he’ll do well and if Raphinha signs on top, it’s as exciting a front line as we’ve had in years. But, a Tammy/Scamacca/DCL in addition to Jesus would have been much more interesting in my opinion.

He has an eminently punchable face…

All ima say if our fans tell us we’ve had a 10/10 window I don’t wanna hear stuttering when people ask if not finishing in the top 4 is a failure!

We on track to spend the most in the PL and probably Europe for a second season in a row.

Why are you not talking about us winning the Premier League?

Should be aiming to compete for that 3rd spot at least.

The gap between us and City/Pool is still too big for a title challenge in my opinion. A second striker and CDM/CM signing would close that gap significantly though.

 

[TornadoTed]

Yeah we are still a long way from Liverpool and City even with 2 years of high spending.

However the spending is good for everyone, for the Arteta fans their man is getting backed, for the doubters (myself included) there will be no more excuses to hide behind.

I suppose Arteta is looking at the City model of having more of a link man up front and then sharing the goals throughout the side. Even Liverpool have most of their goals come from the wide players. I'm not sure if Raphinha (if signed) and Saka either side of Jesus (if that's how we line-up) will be able to do this. They both strike me more of creative wide players rather than ruthless finishers, but Saka in particular has room to develop this and vastly improved his finishing last season.

 

[Rex Stone]

Not saying this as shade or as anything other than fact.

DCL will score more goals this year

 

[Flying Okapis]

IF we continue to do business in the market and bring in the likes of Raphinha and a better CM I think Jesus does well.

**** it, I'm gonna say 20goals from him this season in all comps

My only worry is post World Cup tail off, Brazilians love the World Cup and will be full blaze up until the tournament, worried whay happens if they have a collective ****ter.

 

[TornadoTed]

None mate, its cl or see ya!!

Absolutely, if we get Raphina and Martinez then the minimum requirement is 70 points, 70 goals and most importantly for me double figures for convincing, dominant performances. The 45 minutes of decent football, 45 minutes of dross and squeaking a 1 goal win like last season won't cut it for me any more.

 

[Camron]

Agreed. DCL should be able to score more goals than the 5 goals he managed last year.

Injuries and more goals than Jesus.

Injuries and more goals than Jesus.

He'll probably get injured again tbh.

 

[Blood on the Tracks]

I'm very happy with this signing.

You're probably looking at him as a 20 goal a season striker in all comps. PL proven. Relatively young. Versatile. In this day and age £45m isn't silly money.

He's not going to be getting as many chances at Arsenal but you'd hope the consistent game time would maybe even that out a little.

Kind of shocked me how good his starts to goals ratio at Man City was to be honest.
