When Gabriel Jesus completed his transfer away from the Etihad Stadium this summer, many considered the signing to be a real coup for Arsenal.
The Brazilian never managed to nail down a starting spot in the City team, whether playing through the middle or on the wings, and this inconsistency in playing time and role was never ideal for a player whose performances seemed to largely be a result of the confidence he had in himself at the time.
He had a blistering start to his City career, coming off the bench in the final 10 minutes of a 2-2 draw with Tottenham and scoring the winner, only for it to be ruled out for offside. Jesus followed this by scoring seven goals in his first eight starts for City to finish the 2016/17 season. However, by November 2017, the goals had dried up and Sergio Aguero had regained the starting spot.
