A Shocking Revelation
Arsenal fans are in disbelief after Gabriel Jesus, the star striker, openly admitted that scoring goals is not his strong suit. The Brazilian player, who joined Arsenal from Manchester City for £45 million in 2022, has struggled to find the back of the net consistently.
Disappointing Performances
During his first season with Arsenal, Jesus managed to score just 11 goals, leaving fans disappointed as the team narrowly missed out on winning the Premier League title. This season, he has only found the back of the net once due to an injury setback.
Arsenal's Search for a New Striker
Jesus' lack of precision has reportedly prompted Arsenal to consider bringing in another striker in the January transfer window. Brentford's Ivan Toney is said to be at the top of manager Mikel Arteta's list.
A Chance for Redemption
Despite his struggles, Jesus will have an opportunity to prove himself when he returns to Arsenal after the international break. He recently played a full 90 minutes for Brazil in their home defeat against Argentina, but failed to score once again.

A Drought for Brazil
Jesus' goal-scoring woes extend beyond his time at Arsenal. He has only managed to score one goal for Brazil since 2019, spanning across 25 matches. This has led some fans to call for more attacking options in the national team.
A Shocking Admission
Speaking after the recent match, Jesus shocked fans by admitting that scoring goals is not his natural talent. He emphasized that while he believes goals are not his strong suit, he still works hard and is determined to find the back of the net again.
Arsenal Fans React
Arsenal fans were far from impressed with Jesus' revelation. Many expressed their frustration, with one fan stating, "He's stating the obvious, I've had to watch him the last two seasons." Another fan couldn't believe that a striker would openly admit this, while others criticized the overall performance of the team.
It remains to be seen whether Gabriel Jesus can regain his goal-scoring form and prove his worth to Arsenal and Brazil.
