Gabriel Jesus (Bog wall supposition)

[Ewan Husami]

No actual links hence bog wall status, but according to the Athletic Arse want £20m so must be open to a deal

He's 29 but please advise which arm you want ripping off that is a steal

I think he would be perfect for us, i have always rated him.

 

[GOBIAS]

Would be good but doesn’t he have injury issues?

 

[Strummer]

More chance of Peter Gabriel.

 

[YellowBelly Red]

I thought that we had a self-imposed transfer embargo with Arsenal.

 

[Monkman]

He's great, but a biscuit. I've also heard Arsenal fans say he's not the same player any more after so many injuries.

 

[DanR]

Carl Jenkinson klaxon going off!

 

[Any Time Now]

I wouldn't be paying the £20m they want unless it was structured with appearance related bonuses, his wages would be an issue too

I'm sure he knows he's not getting another ~£200k p/w contract but I can't see him wanting to half it either

 

[Yates in the Fjord]

Too many injuries, too expensive, too few goals AND from Arsenal. Stay away!

His best years are behind him, and this isn’t the direction we should be going. It has the feel of a 2022-style Forest signing, let’s just hope it doesn’t turn into a 2026 one.

 

[JonnoSnr]

Not for me. Not because he's not a good player but there are many issues at play here.

Injury record
Wages that would make him comfortably our highest paid player.
Little to no resale value
The Arsenal player curse we have

Jesus x 2 in the squad. Surprised @Notcher hasn't suggested this….

He's more of a Antichrist, he doesn't even like the one we got!

I don't believe in God so you might be onto something.

 

[Bobby The Brain]

More chance of Gabriel from Arsenal.

 

[Est.1865]

Sounds like he wants to see out the last year of his deal with Arsenal, he’s also 3 goals behind Firmino in terms of all time PL goals scored by a Brazilian, a record he wants to break….

So he likely doesn’t want to stay in the PL, but the chance to be a free agency next Summer is also good for him. PL teams are bound to be all over him though.

It would be the second coming.

His injury issues are already factored into his price. If he didn't have those issues his price would be double that.

With Igor, Wood & T already at the club, I think we could afford to risk this one. If it were up to me he would be near the top of my list.

Nowhere near as good as The Stone Roses, it must be said?

We'd be spending the whole season on injury watch!

 

[Baronvon]

If we could guarantee he would be fit for most of the season, sure.

The chances of that being the case seem remote though.

Agreed. He may only play 20 games but he is on a different level to what we have

Top level prem ready and proven brazilian striker, or spunk £20m on another "maybe", i know where i am with that

 

[Any Time Now]

There's better business out there than blowing our wage bill open for a player touching 30 on the back of an ACL injury, no doubt he's a good player on his day but I can't imagine Syrianos will be too interested
