One of few players who actually deserves a new contract

Seriously, he has earned it, as a striker he’s getting no service, he’s doing the dribbles and work that midfielder does andtaking a shot on goal, he can surely be on next level.

I feel like all these players who are up for contract extensions should prove that they deserve it. What’s the point of us giving him 150k a week if we don’t know that he’ll perform at the highest level for us?

Not even remotely worth it. Should be told that if he doesn’t start showing a consistent improvement, he doesn’t have a future at this club. If we want to win the CL we need to have the best players. Jesus might get there on day but he’s got to prove he can.

Why? Haaland banging in goals weekly, jesus has been around City long time and cannot produce the goods when needed. Jesus sholud have been sold last window and a proper striker brought in. No defender in the PL fears Jesus. All fear Aguero.

Wait till the end of the season to see if he deserves it!
