There is no escape now: this season has been disappointing Arsenal for now.

After two campaigns of fighting over the Premier League table, the Gunners will look to go a long way this year and, as things stand, It has six points from the league leaders Liverpool, who have a game in hand.

Now, Biography of Mikel Arteta The side have been unlucky in the injury department and have been wrong on several quick refereeing decisions. However, many of the team's problems are caused by the way they play.

A number of stars have seen their form drop dramatically so far this season, including big-money signing Thierry Henry who said he would have loved to play.

Not good for Arsenal

So, before we get to the player in question, it's important to look at some of the disappointments this season, starting with Gabriel Martinelli.

Now, the sad thing about the Brazilian winger is that he followed a tough campaign last year in the way he did he scored only 13 goalsHis lack of performance this season has not come as a huge surprise.

The old stone of Ituano has a bus four goals and two assists to his name in 22 games so far and he looks like a shadow of the player who was unstoppable in 22/23.

It feels like the 23-year-old has lost his ability to tackle his opponent, and the few times he has beaten a defender this season, he has often missed with his shot or misplaced a pass.

Unfortunately for Arteta, his favorite Guarulhos-born player at the end of last season, Leandro Trossard, has also been out of action this year.

The Belgian ace was also involved four goals and two assists in 22 games, far from the exciting draw of 17 goals and two assists he made it last season.

Furthermore, after finding himself in danger this season, the former Brighton & Hove Albion ace has also made bad decisions or been greedy, to the detriment of the team.

Overall, the two players are posing challenges for the manager this season, although they still offer him something more than one of his more expensive teammates that Henry praised.

Arsenal star Arteta should be beaten

So, to get to the point, the Arsenal player in question is none other than that Jesus Gabriel.

The Brazilian striker joined the team in the round £45m in the summer of 2022 and made a huge impact on the team in his first year, scoring 11 goals and providing seven assists in 33 appearances.

However, the former Manchester City ace underwent knee surgery midway through the campaign, and while he was active afterwards, some of his sharpness and resilience faded.

However, at the start of the following season, Arsenal and Premier League legend Thierry Henry was full of praise for the 27-year-old, according to CBS Sports "I would love to play with him" and that "what he gives and what he does for the team is second to none."

However, as the season progresses, the assessment of the French image of the striker seems to be more out of touch with reality.

When he finished the campaign with a proper pull eight goals and eight assists in the 36th game, he lost his place to Kai Havertz.

Unfortunately, instead of fighting to get back this season, the dynamo born in Sao Paulo has progressed a lot, and after 20 especially substitute appearances, he has a problem. one goal and two assists to his name.

Also, the 5 foot 9 marksman looks like a shadow of his former self, with his recent performances with Fulham, AS Monaco and Everton, mostly disastrous.

Now, if he was a team player, then this wouldn't be a big deal, but on top of his high fee, he is. he earns £265k a weekthat makes him the second-highest paid player in the league, and he's not close to proving that at this point.

In the end, although Jesus is a very talented player, his form last year and a bit was really poor, and with no signs of improvement in the last few games, Arteta and Co should look to sell him soon.
