Arsenal star Gabriel Jesus has been likened to England's record international goal scorer Wayne Rooney, with claims that they both possessed a style of "street football". That comparison comes despite the Brazilian's recent difficulties in front of goal, currently going eight games without finding the back of the net in all competitions.
Given the importance of getting a result on Thursday night, the 25-year-old was called into action against FC Zurich in the Europa League. The Gunners had to match or better PSV Eindhoven's result to ensure they finished top of the group and earn a bye to the round of 16 rather than playing an extra game against a team dropping from the Champions League.
While they managed to do that, it was yet another game where Jesus failed to find his shooting boots, even missing a chance to score from a few yards out that saw him react by hitting a pillar of the goal in frustration. It means questions still hang over his head as well as Mikel Arteta's as to whether they have the goal scorer they so badly craved last season.
