Usually a good judge on these new lads. Think he’s going to explode here, be playing for Madrid or Barca in 2 years. Maybe even a return to City if one of the Spanish clubs pay Haaland’s clause.

He’s obviously a good player but I don’t think he has the mindset to be an elite striker. Although I thought the same of Benzema and now he’s the best striker in the world. Moving out of Ronaldo’s shadow really helped mould him from servant to superstar. I’m kinda hoping the same happens for Jesus. I need him to be selfish, demanding and confident in front of goal. I think he has the quality to be a main striker for the biggest clubs but he needs to show it now.
Just watched the first training video of him. He is a quality striker at different level. Top close control, suddent changes of directions with subtle feints, eyes on teammates' movement, and good finishing. And he is really fast with his decision making. Either he is quick with conditioning himself in pre-season or he is naturally born so. Can't wait to see his action in this coming season.

There's no need to get carried away about him dominating poor opposition but I do think that having a player who has won as much as he has in recent years and isn't afraid of big moments will help us when we need that bit of magic and some of the less experienced players are struggling. I think he's going to have the best individual season of his career if he's fit all year.

Movement looks great.
Finishing good.
Seemed to work well with Nketiah
I think he’ll do well in our system.

We all know his all round game is elite but if he be very good with his finish and be more clinical he easily 25 goals striker let's hope we see more what we saw today

...Mr Magalhaes watching over Jesus incase the kid tried anything funny, MY CB!
I'm pleased that he got off to a good start. I'm not totally convinced by him numbers wise but I hope he has the best time of his career with us.

As I said yesterday, my first instinct is rarely wrong.
I think he’ll be playing in Spain in two years, £100m transfer. He’s too good for EL football.

Sits on the bench at City, wins a league championship medal.
Sits on the bench at Arsenal, sees us get battered by a Bundesliga 2 team.
He could legitimately put in a transfer request this window, and I wouldn't blame him
Unless something drastically changes with Arteta's tactical approach (and I really hope it does) then it's extremely hard to negatively critique any attacking player/striker playing under him. Yeah said player might genuinely be dreadful (like Pepe who was also terrible under Emery and Freddie) but by the same token he could be an elite player completely destroyed by embarrassing management (like Auba).
But at the same time IF the player does end up banging in goals then he's probably world class because if you can bang them in while Arteta is your manager then you'd probably be getting 10 a game elsewhere under a good coach.

Not sure why your getting the d'oh emoji, we've gone from scoring 77, 74 and 73 in the 3 seasons prior to Tets to 56 55 and 61 since he's been here. Either the players all went to the dogs overnight or there's another explanation
Might be because of my Pepe assessment? I'd like to think there's a broad consensus on here that Arteta has taken us back attacking wise while the Pepe thing seems to be a legitimate difference of opinion, maybe even a majority thinking he's a decent player that's been ruined by Arteta freezing him out.Not sure why your getting the d'oh emoji, we've gone from scoring 77, 74 and 73 in the 3 seasons prior to Tets to 56 55 and 61 since he's been here.

Pepe is a decent player, is it the fee we paid that makes people underestimate him so much? I guess so. He did frustrate me a lot, but his numbers and a decent amount of good performances show he's been unreasonably underused imo

Think Jesus is close to a banker signing to be honest.
Expect him to explode over the next couple of years.
There's no shame in playing second fiddle to Aguero or getting shunted around to accommodate him as happened at most of his career at Man City.
Make him the main man up top here and he'll reward the faith put in him.

He could be our new Sanchez, play style is very similar.
A player of undoubted quality, but never quite the main man at his previous club... Arsenal have given him that chance and I think he will be brilliant, like Alexis.
Do wish our fans on twitter could praise Gabby 3, without using him to have a go at Auba and Laca...both were very good servants here, even if they had difficult ends at the club.
