Premier league is about to get started again as we wait for the world cup to be over.Arsenal are currently sitting on top of the table with five points clear above City who sit second,followed by Newcastle,and a bad news has come from world cup about Brazilian star man Gabriel Jesus being injured and will be out for about three months. This news is a very bad one for Arsenal because he is one of the reasons why Arsenal are ontop of the table now,and his absence my really affect their performances.
Nketiah will be the man to fill the space left by him.I pray his injury won't make Arsenal drop form.
True, Gabriel Jesus became a player who raised Arsenal's performance. Even though he has only scored 5 goals and 5 assists so far, his contribution to messing up the opponent's defense is really needed. With his speed he is always troublesome in the opponent's defense and it is not uncommon for him to be a player who is often violated when holding the ball. Arsenal will suffer losses due to injuries, but I hope the injuries are not prolonged.
Honestly the absence of Gabriel Jesus when the league resume will have a negative impact on Arsenal, he has been a workaholic and hardworking striker who always assisted the team defensively as well as a good ball dribbler and with 5 goals and 6 assist to his credit this season is a good statistic, unfortunately his injury is a big blow to Arsenal title bid sidelining with three months injury
will affect the team because I don't think Nketiah is capable enough to fill his role as a complete striker, alternatively Arteta might play Martinelli as the main striker while Nketiah comes as a substitute, Arsenal fans will feel bad with this latest news.
Yes, hopefully Arsenal can still maintain their performance because after all, I think all teams will always have the same risk for their key players getting injured. But indeed, the injury to Gabriel Jesus will greatly impact Arsenal's position at the top of the Premier League standings at this time.
But of course this incident can also be a valuable lesson for Arteta, because when a key player is injured, of course Arteta is required to make even more difficult rotations.
At least Arteta should be able to maintain good results until the end of the year, because after the World Cup the reality is that the English Premier League will restart which means they will restart before the transfer window opens.
Therefore, Arteta must be able to have the best way to be able to maintain Arsenal's performance at least until the end of the year. Because after that Arteta can make purchases of players, which are at least enough to replace or be able to strengthen their attack line due to the temporary absence of Gabriel Jesus.
