Gary Lineker has suggested that Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus could struggle to get back into the Gunners starting lineup.
The former Tottenham Hotspur striker has noted that Jesus is injured at the moment.
So, what has Gary Lineker said about Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus? Let’s take a look.
Gary Lineker comments on Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus
Well, Gary Lineker thinks that Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus could struggle to get back into the starting lineup.
The former Tottenham Hotspur striker has pointed out that Arsenal are playing well and are scoring goals in the absence of Jesus.
The £45 million (Sky Sports) Brazil international striker is injured at the moment. Leandro Trossard is playing down the middle despite being a winger by trade. He scored against West Ham United and against Burnley.
Lineker said about Jesus on The Rest is Football podcast: “Jesus has been out injured, hasn’t he? It’s questionable now where and whether he would get back in. I thought Havertz as well is contributing.”
My View: Gabriel Jesus could become the new Aaron Ramsdale
In my opinion, Gabriel Jesus could end up being a squad player at Arsenal next season, just like Aaron Ramsdale is right now.
Ramsdale started the season as the number one goalkeeper for Arsenal, but David Raya is now a regular in the starting lineup. There is speculation that Ramsdale could leave the Gunners.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has already hinted at interest in a potential deal for Kylian Mbappe. While I do not think that the Paris Saint-Germain striker will join the Gunners when he could go to Real Madrid, it shows that the North London club are looking for a new striker.
Jesus is a very good forward who is brilliant at pressing, linking up with fellow attacking players, and is a threat, but he simply does not score enough goals.
The 26-year-old Brazil international striker has scored 73 goals in 202 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
