'It's hard, it's difficult, it hurts': Gabriel Jesus opens up on alarming goal drought

Speaking about his goal drought, Gabriel Jesus said: "I don't know, I really don't know. If I know I can tell you!  But the only thing I can do is keep trying, keep fighting, keep improving. Like I said, I am here to score goals.

"I am here to help the team with the goals. I understand that. Of course, the goals are coming back soon. Everyone was a little bit upset because we know we could win the game [against Southampton].

"We created a lot but we were not finishing good. I put me in that of course. I could have scored one or two — and then we win. It's hard, it's difficult, it hurts, but we have to wake up, improve and come back."

Jesus has scored just once in October and his total Arsenal tally for the 2022/23 campaign currently stands at five goals in 13 games.

The Brazilian had four shots without success away at Southampton at the weekend with the Gunners having to settle for a 1–1 draw.
