Former England midfielder, Jamie Redknapp has insisted that Arsenal are not missing their first-choice striker, Gabriel Jesus.

Jesus is currently recovering from an injury he sustained last year.

In his absence, Eddie Nketiah has led Arsenal’s attack, scoring seven goals in his last seven games for Mikel Arteta’s side, including a brace against Manchester United on Sunday.

Speaking after Arsenal defeated Man United 3-2, Redknapp told Sky Sports: “When Jesus got injured, you think can Nketiah come in and be the man?

“He has got seven goals in his last seven games. He must feel so good. He would have read everything about how Arsenal won’t cope without Jesus. But they have not missed him one bit.”
