What Arsenal stars have told Gabriel Jesus about Tottenham ahead of his first north London derby

Arsenal star Gabriel Jesus has admitted that the north London derby against Tottenham is "all" his teammates are talking about in preparation of the game. It will be the Brazilian's first taste of the fiery clash between the two clubs since joining the Gunners in the summer.

The 25-year-old joined to help solve Mikel Arteta's woes in the forward line, hitting the ground running with four goals and three assists in his opening seven matches. His quality both on and off the ball has elevated Arsenal to another level, sitting top of the league going into the local rivalry.

"Individual actions make a difference in football and Gabriel Jesus is doing them week in, week out," Arteta said last month. "He was involved in the goals and his contributions to the team have been outstanding. He's still 25 so he can improve his level a lot. He is hungry enough and has huge desire to get better and better."
