Arsenal’s signing of Gabriel Jesus impresses Tony Cascarino, and he expects the Brazilian to thrive at the Emirates.
Jesus will become their main striker from this season after sealing a big-money move to the club.
The Brazilian had previously been on the books of Manchester City from 2016, and the Premier League champions agreed to sell him after signing Erling Haaland.
He would have fallen down the pecking order at the Etihad if he stayed.
At Arsenal, the team will be built around him, and chances would be created for him to score.
Cascarino believes the striker would do very well, and he is better than Richarlison who has just joined Tottenham.
He said, as quoted by The Daily Mail: ‘I think Gabriel Jesus ticks a lot more boxes and they’ve got him at a better price.
‘If you said to me now who will get the most goals, I’d say Gabriel Jesus would get more goals than Richarlison for Tottenham.
‘And he’s more versatile than Richarlison. Gabriel Jesus has played left-wing, right-wing and centre-forward for Man City.’
Just Arsenal Opinion
With a few more goals, we could have won enough matches and ended the last season inside the top four.
Jesus will bring that extra edge, and we should finish this campaign higher than the last one.
Hopefully, he would have a proper pre-season, and the team will start the campaign brightly.
The way we play and the chances we create, this guy is as clever as they get,
It is going to take an act of God to deny him twenty goal this season.
Will that be enough to take us over the line is another matter, we still need a plan B in my opinion Say even an Ivan Toney like signing for a slightly different option.
But all in all its early days yet for two quality additions, with the five change rules ever so present in mind
Now that we’ve got Jesus and Mohamed in our squard, grace and favor shall be upon Arsenal Football Club. We shall cry no more!!!
I can’t but smile. You’re hilarious I must say.
Great sense of humour Kedrik and can I just say AMN to one and all?!?!
And we have three Gabriels in the team!!!!
hilarious you deserve praise for that comment
Until perhaps they try to score against the Pope at Newcastle 😊
If he scores 15 plus I’ll be happy 😃
Nice to start the day with a smile.Good stuff guys.I have always respected TC as one of the more sensible pundits.Richarlison and for that matter, Raphina,seem to me to be highly temperamental ,self centred individuals, whereas, Jesus is a real team man.
I Started A Joke …….
The three Bee Gees (Brazilian Gabriels) of Arsenal.
Fantastic signing! To pull this off with no CL football, is testament to the great work Arteta and Edu are doing at the moment.
Nketiah seems to be developing nicely as well, so I feel a lot better with our striking options going into this season. Definitely need a new LB and DM/CM though.
We need more Gabriels. Once we have them all no one will stand against us.
Without yet kicking a ball, Jesus has already made us more a team to be reckoned with.. Psychological edge is great for us and in terms of our opponents. Even when not at his best, he will still improve our goalscoring

Gabriel Jesus is a wonderful signing and his continuous running and pressing suits the Arteta style of play. That said, we still urgently need a DM/CM and a back up LB since Tavares cannot be trusted to do the defensive duties in Tierney’s absence. In my opinion, Martinez and Dybala/Gnabry would be great signings although I believe Martinez is more inclined towards Man United to join Ten Hag. In that case let us go in for Aaron Hicky as LB, the lad has real talent.
We are not interested in Hickey.
