Gabriel Jesus' Arsenal transfer "mistake" claim backfires on ex-Man City star

Manchester City were accused of making a mistake when they allowed Gabriel Jesus to leave for Arsenal by one of their own former stars in Dietmar Hamann, but is hasn't exactly played out that way.

Of course, the Brazilian international has transformed Arsenal since he arrived at the Emirates and such was the esteem he was held in by City fans, the bulk of the fanbase are most likely happy for him. However, that also implies they aren't missing him too much.

None of this is to diminish Jesus' achievements since joining the Gunners, but there is one clear reason why allowing him to depart was not an error of judgement from City boss Pep Guardiola. That reason comes in the form of their new Norwegian powerhouse, Erling Haaland.
