Mikel Arteta sets major target for Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah amid Arsenal goal drought

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has urged his strikers Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah to end their respective goal droughts ahead of the Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest.

After an impressive start to the season, Jesus has now gone six games without netting a goal and vowed to end his goalless run before the World Cup break next month. Granit Xhaka has proved to be a consistent source of goals having scored two in his last three appearances as he continues to impress for the Gunners this season.

Club captain Martin Odegaard expects a difficult test this afternoon against Steve Cooper's side, who knocked Arsenal out of the FA Cup last term. The north London outfit can reclaim top spot in the Premier League table with a win as they target revenge over Forest and get back to winning ways at the Emirates Stadium.
