Having never won the Golden Boot before during his Man City days, Arsenal supporters are hoping new signing Gabriel Jesus can hit new levels whilst donning the red and white jersey.
Jesus, 25, has made a flying start to life at his second Premier League club with three goals netted already in his first three outings for Mikel Arteta's side in pre-season. Surprisingly, he didn't find the net in the latest encounter against Orlando City but he did play a bit part for Eddie Nketiah's sole goal. His versatility and adaptability in front of goal to not just be limited to scoring goals himself really makes him a team player within Arteta's system- something the Spaniard commented on when asked about the fluidity of his new recruits and how that itself can only be seen as a benefit ahead of 2022/23.
"That's one of the things, and where we can adapt structures, formations and rotations, we think this squad and playing with the same players in a different way to be more unpredictable is obviously that - it's important and that's why we have recruited those players," Arteta side. Jesus usually can hit double digits in the Premier League every season as shown throughout his prolonged Man City tenure but his status in never being the first-choice option has meant that the Brazilian has never really entered the Golden Boot conversation over the years.
