Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus looks like a natural fit for the Gunners, continues hot start during preseason

The striker was on the scoresheet again, bagging the winner against Everton

BALTIMORE -- It may only be preseason, but Arsenal's most important summer, Gabriel Jesus, signing is off to a hot start during their tour of the United States. In two matches, the striker already has three goals while looking comfortable with Gabriel Martinelli, Martin Odegaard, and Bukayo Saka in the attack. It's music to Mikel Arteta's ears as the team made quite the commitment to the Brazilian, signing him from Manchester City on a £45 million deal. He's got the No. 9 shirt, a five-year contract, and the keys to the attack. 

Arteta's familiarity with Jesus during their time together at Manchester City is important, but Jesus is a different type of forward than Alexandre Lacazette, who he's replacing. Standing at 5-foot-9, Jesus is hardly an imposing figure on the pitch, but that doesn't stop him from getting onto the ball through his speed and impressive work rate. He will look to shoot more than Lacazette, and it's just what Arsenal need. Manchester City may have top-tier chance creators, but it's no easy feat to score 58 goals and assist 29 more in the Premier League while playing a large part in four league titles in five years. Now as the man in attack, the sky is the limit. 

In Arteta's own words, Jesus "creates chaos," and that's a good description of how Arteta wants the attack to play heading into the season. Arteta isn't the only one looking forward to what Jesus can bring either.
