Former Manchester City defender Joleon Lescott rapped Gabriel Jesus after their Champions League defeat to Lyon.

The Brazilian was largely redundant on a forgettable evening for the Premier League champions, as they crashed to a 2-1 defeat at home to Lyon in their Champions League group stage opener.

"You know with Aguero you're always going to get goals," said Lescott.

"Jesus probably hasn't scored as many as he would like this season. You get work rate but when you're playing up front for Manchester City it needs to be more than work rate.

"It needs to be end product and if you're not scoring them you need to be creating them.

"City as a whole tonight just weren't as good and as dominant as they have been in previous games."
