Really impressed tonight by his cameo. He was unlucky to not have a goal on his return. Please can he be rid of injuries now ![]()
This guy did a lot more in his first appearance in 11 months than Gyokores did tonight in half the game time.
Nice to see him back. Still believe he is the most naturally talented player in our squad.
Be lovely to see him contribute to us winning the PL this season, and complete a redemption arc, as long as that arc ends in the summer with him leaving the club!
Nah if he gets through this season Iād rather just have him for the final 12 months and he can leave on a free like Partey did.
What if we had a chance to sign a top striker in the summer like Alvarez? But it meant moving on Jesus? Are you still keeping him for another season?
Obviously everyone would do that if presented with that specific choice. But I donāt think thereās a realistic chance that is what we will be faced with.
Why? In the summer, with the squad we have, we can afford to look at replacing one or two players with big money signings.
Yeah, but your last post was asking if someone would do that if it specifically meant we have to let Jesus leave early. My point is everybody would but we are probably not going to be constrained by Jesus specifically. As in, if we were gonna go for Alvarez, weād go for him regardless.
Best scenario would be for him to stay injury-free and smash it for the rest of the season. Would love to see him chip in with goals and help our overall squad depth. That will build his value for a justifiable fee in the summer - because after two long lay offs, his legs donāt have much left at this level.
Arteta talking about playing him upfront with Gyokeres.
This would be incredible. Hope it isnāt just lip service.
Having Jesus fit for most of the rest of the season would probably be a bigger boost for us than any signing we made in the summer (bar Zubi).
The chances are slim but one can always hope⦠![]()
Sounds like Arteta has zero intention of letting Jesus go in January based on the last two pressers.
Why would he let our best #9 leave? :s.
The Jesus āwill he solve our CF problemsā merry go round continues.
Poor bastard has been the messiah for us about 4 times. Coming back like Lazarus to save our season.
Then we remember heās not a very good finisher and want to crucify him again.
In seriousness, his dribbling, hold up play and spontaneity is going to be really useful, irrespective of his finishing. Really looking forward to having him back as another option.
He will bring that chaos factor in the final third, even withouth the goals, if he can stay fit for a while.
Although, he was in some strange goalscoring form last year, just befor he got injured⦠Actually that was his best goalscoring form ever in the Arsenal shirt. You nevet know what to expect of him.
Heās the answer to the problem on the left wing, except their isnāt a problem at the moment as Trossard is bang in form.
Chaos merchant. Can imagine him and Calafiori causing confusion everywhere on the pitch.
