Games like this you feel like the sky is the limit for him.

For me, he's our best player with Trossard a close second.

Still unsure what Odegaard has done for me not to feel the same way about him as he has similar characteristics.

goon -- taken down, but here's a YouTube comp

That chest control and turn from Raya's long ball around 1:11 is just stupidly good.

Gazza M

goon he drilled him into being a cog in his machine, but he has some old school jogo bonito in him. he over eggs it at times, but can do some spectacular stuff that no-one else in the squad can pull off

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

daredevil took me a while with Odegaard, but the guy is pretty much tier one now.

Qwiss

goon Pep tends to do that to players. They may perform at a high level but they're almost never fun.

Jesus has definitely bulked up. Not sure if they have him on the Saka diet, if he's just taken on a "Dad bod(y)", or if its leftover weight from his injury/recovery.

Regardless, he's looking confident in his body, and I think the extra muscle/weight will serve him well as a lone CF.

Lukazan

Hopefully he can stay injury free and build a run in the side now because as much as I have time for Eddie, he's got no place in the side when Jesus is playing like this. So pleasing on the eye and a touch of arrogance about him all the greats have.

RocktheCasbah

Lukazan sure. It's not an exact comparison as the skill gap isn't quite a vast, but playing Eddie up top instead of Jesus would be a bit like playing Franny Jeffers instead when you have Thierry Henry available to you.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert didn't know he had a side-hustle fuelling the transfer rumour mill...

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Jesus' first touch is impeccable.

Don Pacifico

RocktheCasbah Jeffers!? You must really not rate Eddie. 😉

Qwiss

RocktheCasbah so harsh, you could have said Kanu or Wiltord

Don Pacifico I did say it wasn't exact... 😁

Jesus is very, very good. It says a lot about what we're up against that he'd be the third best striker at City if he stayed.

It says a lot about your ball knowledge if you think he would be the third best striker at City. He is, by miles, the second best striker in the league.

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Jesus is a baller and a pleasure to watch but we are a bit easily pleased.

I know he came but from injury but still disappointed he went missing end of last season. If we are going to bash Ramsdale for that horror mistake v Southampton then Jesus needs to be criticised for missing those sitters.

I would also like him to replicate his home form when he plays away. He had a few good away games last season early on (Palace, Utd and Brentford away) but would like more, thought he was a bit average when he came on v Everton last weekend.

I mean, it's just you doing that. 😆

Qwiss hahaha, I loved Kanu I thought he was an incredible footballer and so I wouldn't have said him, but I'll take your point on Wiltord.
