With Mikel Arteta in charge Arsenal likes to keep the ball and be good at defending. Even though they play good sometimes and bad other times Arteta still believes in how he wants them to play. Gabriel Jesus has been really good lately scoring five goals in three days with three of them coming against Crystal Palace. Him playing well is really important especially since Bukayo Saka can’t play cause he hurt his hamstring.
