Mikel Arteta revealed Gabriel Jesus continues to play an important behind-the-scenes role at Arsenal after suffering an injury on international duty.
Jesus, a summer signing from Manchester City, earned a call-up to Brazil's World Cup on the strength of his Arsenal displays. He picked up an injury in Qatar, though, and has begun his path to recovery after knee surgery.
Arsenal won their first league game without the South American, coming from behind to beat West Ham 3-1 and add to their cushion at the top of the Premier League table. After the game, manager Arteta revealed the five-goal striker still has a key part to play even when he can't contribute on the pitch.
