Don't think people understand the transformative effect Jesus will probably have in our attack. The fact he simply gets into the box is a massive improvement on last season.
He is strong, decent in the air, good dribbler, good link up play, aggressive.
Personally, he'll need to score more goals to justify that fee. Arteta is making him the main man. Let's see if he can step up to the challenge.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't mind if he or whoever becomes our CF scores loads of goals (obviously it's great if they do).
For Arteta's tactics to work and to get the best out of our excellent wide players we need a CF who can get the ball down and play with them, play them in as much as a guy to finish off chances.
Exactly like you said "strong, decent in the air, good dribbler, good link up play, aggressive" - whether Jesus is those things I'm personally not sure.
That's at least what I saw missing big time first with Auba, also with Eddie but less so when Lacazette was on form despite his major shortcomings in other areas.

Of course not. But we aren't spending £30m+ each on players to sit on the bench. Vieira and Odegaard will start. And if we are still linked to Tielemans.

Doubt Vieira will go straight in. He wasn't even a regular at Porto, plus he is likely to be on the right early on. Europa for him to begin with.

Arteta tried this formation with Ceballos and Odegaard. And then on occasion with ESR and Odegaard.
I can't see why Arteta would spend £35m+ on Vieira if not to start him. Its how City play btw. 4-1-4-1.

Took him the EFL Cup, but he was a regular the season before, and the season before...
Fabio is more comparable to Sambi.

We'll see. I think it will be clearer if/when we go after Tielemans after Jesus and Raphinha are secured.
He played Xhaka as a FB because of no other possible solution.
