Gabriel Jesus’ confidence should be a concern for Arsenal

Gabriel Jesus is struggling to find goals in his recent games.

The Brazilian forward had a promising start to his Arsenal career scoring five goals in his first eight games in the Premier League.

Arsenal are currently leading the top-flight standings Jesus has more than played his part in club’s recent form.

But the 25-year-old has struggled to get his name on the scoresheet in his last seven games in all competitions.

Club legend David Seaman is worried about Jesus’ confidence at the moment.

“The fans were so desperate for Jesus to score [on Sunday],” Seaman said on his podcast Seaman Says. “Every time he was around the box, they were saying, ‘Give it to Jesus! Give it to Jesus!’.

“They were saying his confidence is low, because he hasn’t scored for a while.

“I was thinking it might actually be a bit lower you know, because we have scored five and he hasn’t scored one. You know, so it’s a bit… it was weird.

“As soon as Odegaard gets [the ball] he looks for Jesus, they are looking for these little passes.”
