The Manchester City youngster has surprised his manager with his fine start to life at the outfit, and the latter admits he did have early doubts
Pep Guardiola suggested Manchester City's signing of Gabriel Jesus was like buying a watermelon, admitting he had been unsure of how he would perform before personally seeing him in action.
The Brazil international was one of the most sought-after talents in world football after impressing in his homeland with Palmeiras and City pulled off a coup by completing his signing in August before he officially joined in January.
Jesus has looked dangerous early in his City career, impressing against Crystal Palace in a 3-0 FA Cup win at the weekend before opening his account for the club in the 4-0 rout of West Ham in the league on Wednesday.
