Gabriel Jesus’ performance in Arsenal’s 1-0 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk left Mikel Arteta utterly delighted.
“Very important because he can play in different positions and roles,” he said in a post-game interview.”His attitude again was exceptional, very unlucky because he had two big chances that he could’ve converted to a goal, in many other areas he was good and we need everybody.”
Jesus replaced Bukayo Saka at the beginning in an unexpectedly right-wing role, and he even captained the Gunners. He completed four dribbles and managed a shot on goal, demonstrating his skill with the ball.However, in ten games this season, the Brazilian forward has yet to score or assist on a goal and failed to contribute to a goal.
