Arsenal icon Ian Wright has revealed he is worried about the goal-scoring form of striker Gabriel Jesus amid his drought over the past few matches. The Brazilian has now gone seven appearances without finding the back of the net across all competitions, putting his performances under a microscope.
Despite his lack of personal contributions, the 25-year-old has still continued to have an impact in the forward areas of the Arsenal attack. His pressing and work rate make him ideal off the ball for Mikel Arteta's style, while his unselfish nature has also seen him provide more for others than himself.
"Training is very restricted, but sometimes it's a lot of mental things you can work on and discuss," The manager said when asked about goal droughts for both of his strikers. "And experiences they've had – it's not the first time Eddie or Gabi have been five games without scoring a goal in their career, that happens to any striker that I've known of. And you have to deal with that. It's part of their job."
