Jesus Navas a revelation

I think we all knew he was really swift. Since he came here two other things are clear. First, he's a far better crosser than some people thought. He's really playing with his head up and picking men out. A good example was his pass to Dzeko in the Palace game. Second, he really puts a shift in and makes us look pretty secure down the right hand side. With Zaba expected to get forward that's crucial. I'd like to see him score a few more goals but hey you can't have everything. And we have goal threats from so many positions it hardly seems to matter.

Played really well again today. Well done Jesus. Who said homesick?

Took a little time to settle but has been great since the Spurs game. Works really hard and like you say can actually cross a ball.

It's Testament to how good he is, but a thread a week about him?

One of my recent fave goals involved him. Against the rags, he ran the entire pitch, made Fellaini look like a clown chasing his shadow and then give an accurate cross, which Nasri finished and made it 4.

He works really hard. Him on the right and Milner on the left and that's the wings locked up tight.

That was the Old Testament and this week is the New Testament. Everything in it is Gospel.

Sorry.

I just hope Chelsea don't get interested in him, he'd end up being Romans...

Coat?

After being a one trick pony when he came ie. run to the by-line and cross, he's added some variation to his game which is quite dazzling. I love watching him with the ball at his feet. I also appreciated the lost cause he fought yesterday late in the game for a ball that was going out. He managed to beat his player (who had a yard start) and keep the ball in.

Its like the ressurection all over again. Original Jesus had a rough patch (thorn crown, nailed to a cross) but came back faster, smarter and stronger. Just like Navas.

Sorry.

He Lukes much better than when we signed him.

He certainly does the Job, I wonder what his Numbers look like. I wish his was a bit more Ruth-less, but he truly is a king among Kings.

He's become what I expected from him. Move along no revelation to see here.

Getting better by the week. As Slim says, the only minor point of improvement will be for him to score more goals. He's never been much of a goalscorer in his career but part of being a great side is having players all over the side who can score a goal if the strikers are not performing.
Same applies to Silva and Nasri also.
