    Yeah. There was a time on the pitch yesterday where Jesus was on the edge of the box from the LW, could have easily laid the ball to Gabi/Rice who had a clear shot on Goal but instead chose to run straight into a wall of 3 defenders.

    I love Jesus and he causes a lot of mayhem for opposition defenders but he needs to have better decision making. Tbf every attacker had poor decision making yesterday including Ødegaard and Saka.

    I also think that for some reason our attackers are trying too hard. Ødegaard and Jesus were consistently getting frustrated and kept messing things up. Ødegaard was trying to force things KDB style but nothing was working for him.

    I’d still continue with Jesus for a couple of more games. He’s on another level to other players when he’s on form. I’m also nowhere Havertz’s biggest fan but if Jesus doesn’t improve we might need to think of other options starting in his place and Havertz has been good aerially the past couple of games. For now, I’d continue with Jesus tho because his all round game on form is far superior to both Eddie and Kai.

      The only player within our reach that we can drop Jesus for is Osimhen and we don’t have him. Toney doesn’t drop Jesus imo.

      Yes he has a terrible game but he is a key reason for our transformation and very influential to how we play. No one is perfect even Haaland has games where he’s a ghost. Jesus sometimes over tries but he’s an excellent defensive striker and doesn’t often go missing.
