Gabriel Magalhães: Future Brighter Than His Teeth?

[Riou]

He's our most promising CB, by quite some distance.

Even if White fulfils his potential here, he will be a level below Gabriel if he fulfils his...he has everything you want in a defender.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Welcome back Gabriel. Strength, pace and ball playing ability. Positionally sound too. He's been missed and I hope he can stay healthy and fit.

 

[Goonger]

We definitely miss him when he's not playing. The potential was there for all to see last season, the way he helped shut out Greenwood & Rashford at Old Trafford & Kane at the Emirates shows he can compete against the top players.

Fitness, consistency & building an understanding now key. If we can now get 30+ starts out of him & Partey in the league it would make a massive difference.

 

[Jury]

Big part of the spine returning is a big plus for us.

Disclaimer: I’m not saying his absence has made Mikel look like a **** manager because, let me make this clear: Mikel IS a **** manager and he needs to be sacked last season if that were possible. Hang on, @Makingtrax is a quantum scientist isn’t he, @hydrofluoric acid? This may be possible!

Our best cb

 

[Barry]

He’s not as good as White on the ball but he’s still pretty good and you can back him to break the lines a few times a game.

Our entire back line can play now and the funny thing is you’d stay Tierney is probably the ‘worst’ passer in the back four. Good tools for the next manager.

Yeah Tierney's passing can be a little inconsistent some times, but that ball for Aubameyang was an absolute peach. That would have been some goal if it came off

 

[Barry]

Thought Gabriel was massive in the Norwich game. One of our best players, did everything right and dominated Pukki

 

[6666Louis]

Was ‘player of the month’ 3 months in a row, before **** got weird.

He’s more Pepe, than Tiago Silva, being more on the front foot..

Didn't we buy this guy? Where did he go?

He got Arsenal’d, aka suffered the type of injury and subsequent lay off that he’d never had previously in his career.

Dammit.

He was looking extremely good, albeit a little error prone

Arsenal'd again today as well

 

[El Duderino]

Imagine him along with Saliba

 

[AberGooner]

Saved our arses 2 weeks in a row. Willing to throw himself in front of the ball to keep it out the net.

 

[Hunta]

He’s a one man defence, got Mustafi’s English cousin to the right of him and Head Down Dickhead at LB.

Mate its ridiculous what £27m gets you in France v £50m in England. Lucky he gets a week's rest between games.

[yousif_arsenal]

Comfertably our best center does look he try to add some leadership to his game and that vital

 

[GoonerJeeves]

Actually one signing we've gotten right. Top notch.

 

[RunTheTrap]

Long Covid is no joke. It really takes a lot out of a player. I look at Gabriel and Havertz who were both sufferes. Havertz looked like another Bakayoko when he returned from his Covid spell. And Gabriel had it so bad, some fans thought Mari was the superior defender ffs. Show some respect to Gabriel man.
