Nice interview with him in the Guardian today:

https://www.theguardian.com/football/20 ... -interview

Some interesting takeaways: he came to City because of Pep, his mom gets mad at him if he doesn't track back, and he thinks he'll play as a left-winger in our team (his actual preferred position)

Another interesting thing to consider is that gabriel has Ze Roberto (yes still playing at 42 years old) as his mentor at Palmeiras, whose been quite the atypical Brazilian always putting professionalism and hard work over partying

We need a third striker..........oh hang on, if that video in that link is anything to go by, I think we've got ourselves a real one.

Roll on January.

Scores another goal via a cooly placed, clinical finish, and then gets an assist from some unselfish play.

We so sure he won't get into the team so quickly?

Really looking forward to seeing him in a city shirt. He looks the real deal.
Hopefully the fans will give him opportunity to bed in and not expect multiple hat-tricks per appearance from the off.....

if he can adapt to the league pretty quickly i dont see how he stays out of the 11.

this lineup of

Fern
Ilkay Kevin
Sterling Silva
Aguero

that seems to be working might be shaken up

He may get into the team quickly as December and January are historically months where games come thick and fast and Kun, if not injured, will need a rest. Whether he remains there is another question. As with Sane, he is a young lad just starting to make his way in football, in a strange country, away from his family and familiarity. I would be very surprised if he were to make an immeadiate impact. I imagine Fern has already taken him under his wing in preparation and it wouldnt surprise me if he was going to lodge with him initially.

Jesus is clearly a big talent, who if monitored well and coached well could become a superstar in the Neymar mould. Lets not pin too much on the lad too sopn

No they have not forgotten.
Its all to do with circumstances. Hes is doing quite well so any positive news or positive links to MCFC wont be reported on, for now hes just a Brazilian kid.

If he fucks up, shags his sisters husband (yes that way around) or goes on a all night bender in his national attire, then we will hear plenty about the new MCFC signing.
