Arsenal fans can’t believe what they are seeing from new star Gabriel Jesus.

The Brazilian was snapped up for £50million this summer, joining from Manchester City after a successful spell under Pep Guardiola.

And he is already off to a flyer, scoring twice and assisting as many in his first two Premier League appearances for the Gunners.

It got even better in his third outing, too, as Arsenal took on Bournemouth. Jesus put together a superb run to beat four players in the lead up to Martin Odegaard’s opener at the Vitality Stadium.

He wasn’t done there, either, providing an asisst for Odegaard to score his second of the game, taking his assist total for the season to three.

And that was all in the first half alone, with Arsenal taking a 2-0 lead in at the break, looking like continuing their fine start to the campaign.
