Where would Gabriel Jesus be if not for his frequent and often serious injuries? We may never know. But it's safe to say that if health complications had eluded him, he would be one of the best strikers in the entire Premier League. He certainly has the qualities to do so. He has already proved that during his time at Manchester City, where he spent six long years, and also in the jersey of Arsenal London. And it was after his move to the Emirates Stadium, where the Brazilian striker came with the idea of being the number one striker, that he showed what he had in his first season. But unfortunately, before the end of his first season at Arsenal came what everyone in the Canaries camp feared, injury. In addition, in the summer transfer window Mikel Arteta has brought in competition in the form of Kai Havertz, so Gabriel Jesus was no longer assured of the number one position in the attack. The arrival of the German international, combined with the Brazilian's health problems, resulted in Gabriel Jesus falling just behind Havertz in the striker hierarchy. Let's hope that the Brazilian offensive all-rounder has taken all the bad luck in the form of injuries, and that we will see him rampaging on football lawns again. His technical stunts are the spice of football and a feast for the eyes.
