Gabriel Jesus reminded a fan about his title-winning exploits at Manchester City after the former Arsenal striker was accused of betraying his former club during Sunday's Premier League clash at the Etihad.
The Brazilian, who joined Arsenal from City in the summer of 2022 for a reported £45 million, enjoyed a trophy-laden spell in Manchester.
As well as scoring 95 goals in 236 appearances across a five-and-a-half-year spell, Jesus lifted 10 trophies under Pep Guardiola, including four Premier League titles, an FA Cup, three Carabao Cups and two Community Shields.
However, his contribution to that period of success was seemingly downplayed by one supporter, who called Jesus a "Judas" as he warmed up on the touchline during Sunday's thrilling match between City and league leaders Arsenal.

Jesus, clearly irked by the comment, made a beeline for the fan. "I won 11 titles here," he said, pointing at the supporter involved. The striker proceeded to cup his hands to his ears before continuing his warm-up alongside Max Dowman.
After footage of the incident started to go viral on social media, plenty of Manchester City fans backed their former player on social media.
One said: "As much as he’s wearing an Arsenal shirt now, Gabby has done a lot for the club and never spoke negatively about us at all," and a second commented: "He’s not Judas at all, got a lot of love for Gabby."
A third wrote: "Some of our new so-called fanbase are absolute idiots and shouldn’t be near our club. Gabby was a fantastic servant to City. No centurions without his goal and left only because surplus to requirements. Show some class."
A fourth said: "This is not how we should be treating people that contributed to our success. We don’t like Arsenal but we should respect him," and a fifth added: "Na bang out of order those fans. He was a great contributor for us and never spoke ill of City. One of the best Brazilians that’s ever played for us."
Man City fans mocked Arsenal with banner after title race blow
It was an afternoon to remember for City, who blew the Premier League title race wide open after goals from Rayan Cherki and Erling Haaland secured a 2-1 win over Arsenal.
In the aftermath of Sunday's game, a section of City supporters unfurled a banner featuring the words “Panic on the streets of London” from The Smiths’ 1987 hit song ‘Panic’.
