Gabriel Jesus reacts to Arsenal return as Viktor Gyokeres difference explained

Gabriel Jesus credits his faith for recovery after nearly a year out while Viktor Gyokeres faces doubts despite six goals in 18 Arsenal appearances this season.

  • Earlier this month Gabriel Jesus returned to Arsenal after nearly 12 months out, immediately adding vigour to the forward line and crediting his recovery to his faith.
  • Viktor Gyokeres faces scrutiny after his start in Arsenal colours as the club paid upwards of 60million for a player whose six goals from 18 appearances do not yet meet expectations.
  • The Arsenal manager said the two forwards offer distinct strengths, and Jesus reported good touches, movement, and eagerness to score as he eased back into Premier League action.
  • After last weekend's defeat, Arsenal's lead is down to two points, and the next seven fixtures plus the January transfer window make Gyokeres's form timely for decisions.
  • Adapting to a new league often requires time, so new signings like Gyokeres merit measured patience despite scarce tolerance; past examples such as Manchester City's �125m spending show big fees don't ensure instant success.
