Surely zero chance of Jesus failing a medical.
He's also never been 1st choice regular starter for them...His best season he scored 14 goals in a side that create for fun stick him in a lesser side he struggles - he isn't prolific and never will be
It's all a matter if perspective, I guess.He is a good player, its a good signing for them. Not sold its what they need, but it strengthens Arsenal.
Yeah is he better then peak Aubameyang, no way. But he strengthens them from last seasons Aubameyang. Like I said, I think he is a good player, not necessarily a great one but sometimes fits are better and he may fit better at Arsenal, guess we will find out.It's all a matter if perspective, I guess.
Are they better off than end of last year with nketiah as their best forward? I guess so.
Are they better off than start of last year with Aubameyang as their forward? I don't think so.
On the other hand, Jesus’s goal+assist/90 over his City career is insanely high - nearly a goal or assist per 90. It’s higher than Kane’s, and up there with Auguero, Salah, and Henry basically. It will be interesting to see how he transitions from impact sub to starter. If he maintains that level of production, he’ll be immense for them. Or we’ll see why he was the backup striker for a team with 0 other strikers. He might just be a player that is better off the bench or in a support role, not as the focal point for an attack.Just for some perspective. Last seaon.
Jesus 28 appearances, 8 goals playing for the best team in England.
Callum Wilson 18 appearances, 8 goals and was out injured for 4 months playing in a relegation threatened team.
£45m with a year left on his contract. Great bit of business by the Arse
You do have to remember though the volume of chances City create and the amount of time City spend knocking on the door of the opposition.On the other hand, Jesus’s goal+assist/90 over his City career is insanely high - nearly a goal or assist per 90.

I'm not as worried about them getting Jesus as I was Richarlison but I don't think Jesus is as bad as some are making out and if he goes there and is their main n.o9 and gets an arm around the shoulder and is made to feel like he's the main man he could well score a good chunk of goals for them.
He also bottled it for Brazil under pressure when being made the main man at the World Cup. Zero goals zero assistsHe's also never been 1st choice regular starter for them...

Odds of Romero kicking the shit outta him in the NLD?
Different players suit different teams. He’s a good player and good signing for them, there is really no denying that.Would you swap him for any of Kane, Son or even Kulu?
Course you wouldn't...
That's appropriate perspective...
