The biggest concern for the Red Devils has been their attacking options up-front. Both Romelu Lukaku and Marcus Rashford have struggled to finish in front of goal which has been a major worry for Jose Mourinho. Gabriel Jesus could have been the perfect answer for Jose's problems had he been a 'red' instead of a 'blue'.

Gabriel Jesus has found it difficult to get the nod ahead of Sergio Aguero and has constantly been a bench-warmer for City recently. It is no doubt that the Brazilian possesses quality in front of goal which he proved by scoring a neat hat-trick against Shakhtar Donetsk in the recent Champions League fixture.

It is a shame that a wonderkid like Jesus is being used just as a substitute while he would easily get into the main eleven of any other team in the league.
