He can play on the right, on the left, he can play as a midfielder and he can be a false nine. “But seriously, we knew what he could bring to the team. More importantly, the Belgian’s performance proved that this team can still thrive without Bukayo Saka, who dropped to the bench as a result of illness in the week. Opposition teams like to pack the penalty box against Arsenal, but Jesus is a player who is capable of finding his way through the smallest of gaps. “He has been working so hard for the last four or five months with a lot of support from the team and the staff,” said Arteta of Jesus. It is testament to Arsenal’s strength as a team that the lengthy absence of Jesus did not derail their title charge over the past few months.

The Brazilian celebrated by pointing to Odegaard and hugging his captain after giving the Gunners a crucial lead. Luke Ayling fouled the Brazilian striker inside the penalty box after he slid in and made contact with Jesus' knee, resulting in a spot kick. Jesus' penalty kick helped ease worries around the ground as Arsenal head into the second half with a 1-0 lead. Jack Grealish fired a warning to the Gunners following City's win with Pep Guardiola's side still having a game in hand to play later this season. Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard played a key role in helping Gabriel Jesus remain focused on converting his penalty to give the hosts the lead at half-time. The Gunners boss revealed that Saka had been feeling unwell prior to the match and opted to start Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard in attack instead.

Gabriel Jesus scored his first Arsenal goal since recovering from a serious knee injury when he won and converted a penalty kick against Leeds United.

Arsenal fans unveiled a new banner showing their love for Mikel Arteta's face before their match against Leeds.

WHAT NEXT FOR ARSENAL? He has since proved many doubters wrong, Before the Gunners clash against Leeds, the Emirates faithful unveiled a banner showing their support for their Spanish boss.

Gabriel Jesus scored his first two goals since coming back from injury to help us to a comfortable win.

Despite only joining the club in January, Leandro Trossard has the joint-second highest number of Premier League assists for us this season (7). And then on 55 minutes, Jesus doubled his tally for the afternoon. After our sluggish start to the first 45, we made amends after the restart and quickly wrapped up the points with two further goals. He first fooled his way past Kristensen and then bamboozled Ayling before he was tripped by our former academy product. Darren England pointed to the spot, allowing the Brazillian to coolly tuck the ball down the middle from 12 yards to end his long wait for a goal. Just like Bournemouth did last month, they nearly caught us cold straight from the kick-off, and Aaron Ramsdale was forced into his first save after just eight seconds when he pushed away a Kristensen strike.

"Just enjoy the moment we are in," Arteta said. "If we go through the journey day by day, when the games come we are in the right frame of mind. But when we got here it was just to focus on us and what we can do as a team," Arteta said. "We can only control what we can do. We were exceptional." "Delighted for Gabriel.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta declared himself "delighted" as Gabriel Jesus scored his first goals in six months in a 4-1 win over Leeds United.

We've had long-term injuries and the team needs to somehow find a way to keep winning and keep performing." On the depth of his squad, Arteta said: "First of all the players have to feel trust, that we trust them. "We are really looking forward to it," Arteta said of the challenge. "He's been working so hard for the last four or five months with a lot of support from the team and the staff. We were all clapping for him," Arteta told reporters. "Delighted for him.

Gabriel Jesus' brace ended the longest goal drought of his career to add a further sense of momentum to Arsenal's Premier League title charge.

I didn't want to complain before the game and I do not want to complain now. We will do it in the next game and I think maybe a better result.

[easing to a 4-1 win](/soccer/report?gameId=638108) -- contributed to a flat start in which, a Jesus headed chance aside, Leeds were the better team. The Gunners looked as though they may have missed his spark in a slow start but it is another nod to Arsenal's shrewd January business that Trossard replaced Saka to play an influential role in putting this game beyond Leeds. It was something of a gamble given the 21-year-old's fine form this season but he missed training on Friday through illness and Arteta deemed him not fit enough to include from the outset. His second goal was a smart finish, meeting Trossard's cross to put the game beyond Leeds.

Arsenal news: Mikel Arteta tweaked his front line against Leeds on Saturday and it worked exactly as planned.

A [Gabriel Jesus](https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/transfer-news/arsenal-manchester-city-barcelona-transfer-26614127) brace was followed by [Ben White](https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/transfer-news/arsenal-manchester-city-barcelona-transfer-26614127) and [Granit Xhaka](https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/transfer-news/arsenal-manchester-city-barcelona-transfer-26614127) on the scoresheet, rendering Rasmus Kristensen's goal a mere consolation. He grabbed the opportunity with a lot of conviction and with two goals." He’s just a proper, proper footballer." He said on Sky Sports: "I thought he [Jesus] was outstanding, he just brings something different to the team. "Jesus is a bit like that for Arsenal. He’s been working so hard for the last for or five months with a lot of support from the team and the staff.

Vivianne Miedema will miss the Women's World Cup due to the ACL injury she sustained in December 2022 against Lyon.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: There's no doubt that Miedema will be a miss for the Netherlands. I need to be realistic in that sense." "I hope to be back for the beginning of next season.

Following Champions League success in the week, our Gunners have a huge WSL clash against Manchester City.

Little, on the other hand, is more of a doubt for the fixture as the medical team continues to assess her injury. Our spectacular win in the Champions League on Wednesday did take a toll on our squad, as captain Kim Little was forced off after only ten minutes and Katie McCabe was substituted following a collision. As our opponents proved in the away leg, it will be no mean feat to keep them at bay. We travelled up to Manchester for a WSL meeting only a few days later and this time, City had the upper hand. Man City’s win over Chelsea last weekend had huge ramifications for a league table that has been in constant flux for months, as our game-in-hand over City and Manchester United looms. As we enter the final two months of the WSL 22/23 season, every goal, save and performance is vital to keep our title dreams alive.

Katie McCabe scores a stunning winner as Arsenal come from behind to beat Manchester City and keep their WSL title hopes alive.
