Gabriel Jesus has told his Arsenal team-mates they must now beat Manchester City in an epic Premier League title decider next week.
The Gunners dropped points for the third game in a row on Friday, salvaging a late 3-3 draw after going behind to rock-bottom Southampton. Mikel Arteta and co were behind after just 27 seconds which set the tone for a frustrating night at the Emirates. Arsenal's latest slip-up has given City the upper hand in the title race, with Pep Guardiola 's reigning champions now five points behind and boasting two games in hand on their rivals.
But next Wednesday the two teams will meet in Manchester and Arsenal striker Jesus, who left City last summer to join the Gunners, is ready to turn the tide. "Manchester City have two games in hand but if we want to be champions we have to go there to win the game," the Brazilian, 26, affirmed to Sky Sports. "That is all."
