WilliamPS Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Jesus could get 20+ a season for Arsenal but right now not sure he’d get the right service at Newcastle. Don’t yet have the midfield and forward line to create the chances Jesus thrives on, and he does not bring the hold up play and physicality still needed through the middle so might get shunted out wide. if he’d come would sign him up in a heartbeat as on 5 year contract by years 2 or 3 we’d be in business, but from his perspective he’d have an instant shot at golden boot at Arsenal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the same with Tiote, scouted and watched by Carr for 4 years, before a bid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This the Arsenal side we absolutely battered at SJP? Who couldn't create a thing? I'd fancy Bruno to find a pass to Jesus, before any of the Arsenal midfield. We won't sign Jesus because he will be looking for 200k a week and that's where we can't yet go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s supposedly only on 90k a week at city, I say only as if it’s not a ridiculous amount but in football terms it’s not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but how much will he want? He's earned his right to a big contract and I'm sure there are clubs abroad who would be prepared to pay his wage.

By all accounts he wants to go to arsenal because of his relationship with Arteta from their time together at city. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah that makes sense. Although, I highly doubt it will prevent him getting the money he wants. He certainly won't be getting 90k. It's a good move for him TBF.

I'm sure this makes a huge difference. Certainly helped us get Trippier. Might explain why we're linked with so many Bournemouth/Burnley players.

Dr Jinx Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 What I find mental is that with all the money being thrown about by all the big clubs, only Chelsea have shown an interest in signing Koulibaly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think any club who managed to get him would be getting a bargain for whatever it would cost. Certainly not 100m anymore. He hasn’t played below 25 games a season but yes he has had the same injury a few times. Also had Covid twice. When fit though he’d be like Thiago Silva but way more mobile.

Also think he’d enjoy his football more because of it (despite his medal collecting hobby falling off a cliff). Must admit I always rated Jesus really highly and thought he wasn't getting enough minutes in his early days at City. He's a genuine world class goalscorer in my book. I suppose the only question would be whether he's slightly past his best years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
